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 nine hundred and ninety nine channels on my TV
And I still have no idea what to believe
There is a choice
Follow the lea-der
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: pull a king down to his knees
Cause they made a choice
Not to follow the lea-der
But use one voice
Shows ordinary peo-ple
Can make a really loud noise
When the hidden ones speak up
Ohhhh hear once voice, hear one voice. He started drinking
too young
Tucked in to 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
Ah but 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 lea-der
Or use your voice
Cause this will just keep up
Until we make a loud noise
And the hidden ones speak up
