Guster - Keep It Together lyrics

When we all had finally washed ashore It was clear there was no one else around We declared a national holiday A chance to build it from the ground [Bridge:] So far away from everyone And everything starts today [Chorus:] Let's keep it together Can we keep it together? We're singing a new song now And everything starts today Can we rise? Can we get along alright? Can we miss the storm that s**ed the whole world in And the boats went out at night And the choppers in the sky They searched but they could find no trace of us [Bridge] [Chorus] The thunder struck, the clouds appeared I feel this crew was not prepared And pretty soon the boats came for us half a million strong We gathered arms and fired shells We built a wall around ourselves And pretty soon the spirit was a lot like what it used to be back home [Bridge] [Chorus x2]
