Step out into the sunlight
Emerging from the past
To breathe the breezy morning air at last

We walk the sunken highways
We wander riven roads
The emptiness becoming our abode

We’re starting over
Build something new
We’ve been a long long time a waiting but we made it through
We’re starting over
Red white & blue
It’s a brand new American dream
For me and you

These West Virginia wildwoods
Across a world of waste
A garden with no fences and no gates

We’re building on the ashes
We’re lighting up the towns
Our reclamation day has come around

We’re starting over
Build something new
We’ve been a long long time a waiting but we made it through
We’re starting over
Red white & blue
It’s a brand new American dream
For me and you

And like a mushroom cloud we rise and spread
Over each road and mountain range
New wars to wrangle and new blood to shed
We know that some things never change...

We’re starting over
Build something new
We’ve been a long long time a waiting but we made it through
We’re starting over
Red white & blue
It’s a brand new American dream
For me and you
