This is how I feel today.
Seeing story after story and picture after picture of the record turnout at the polls, I find myself overcome with emotion. I am so proud of my country today! This song keeps popping into my head (and I've altered one tiny part of one line):

Just a castaway
An island lost at sea
Another lonely day
There's no one here but me
More loneliness than any man could bare
Rescue me before I fall into despair

I'll send an SOS to the world
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle yeah
Message in a bottle yeah

Four years have been since I wrote my note
But I should have known this right from the start
Only hope can keep me together
Love can mend your life or love can break your heart

I'll send an SOS to the world
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle yeah
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle yeah
Message in a bottle

Walked down this morning
Don't believe what I saw
Hundred billion bottles
Washed up on the shore

Seems I'm not alone at being alone
Hundred billion castaways looking for a home

I'll send an SOS to the world
I'll send an SOS to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle yeah
Message in a bottle
Message in a bottle oh oh
Message in a bottle yeah

I'm sending out an SOS
I'm sending out an SOS
I'm sending out an SOS
