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.
