Hidden Ones

She's holding a torch in her hand

Pointing towards Heaven

And on the streets below her, people living out of trashcans

Are trying to believe she's got a plan

We dug a hole under the sea

But nobody knows how to stop the bleed

There's 999 channels on my TV

And I still have no idea what to believe

There is a choice

Follow the leader

Or use your voice

Cause this will just keep up

Until we make a loud noise

And the hidden ones speak up

Over the water to the east

Two million in a square refuse to sleep

Till every pleading voice is heard

And all the world has seen

Revolution: fallen king down to his knees

Cause they made a choice

Not to follow the leader

But use one voice

Shows ordinary people

Can make a really loud noise

When the hidden ones speak up

He started drinking too young

Tucked into his jeans now is a gun

And the stories of his ancestors

They will never be sung

For he is going where they do not see the sun

And look, there's a circus in town

Watch as the lion eats the clown

Tell me who out there is leading on the ground?

Who will catch the boy before he drowns?

If they're busy putting shows on for the crowd?

There is a choice

You can follow the leader

Or use your voice

Cause this will just keep up

Until we make a loud noise

And the hidden ones speak up
