Lyrics Missy Higgins – Hidden Ones

She’s holding a torch in her hand
Pointing towards heaven
And on the streets below her people living out of trash cans
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

But there is a choice
Follow the leader or use your voice
Cause this’ll 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 their revolution
Pull a king down to his knees

Cause they made a choice
Not to follow their leader but use one voice
Shows ordinary people can make a really loud noise
When the hidden ones speak up
Oh the hidden ones
Oh the hidden ones

He started drinking too young
Tucked in his jeans now is a gun
And the stories of his ancestors
They will never be sung
For he’s going where they do not see the sun

Ah but look! There’s a circus in town!
Watch as the lion eats the clown!

Oh there is a choice
You can follow the leader or use your voice
Cause this’ll just keep up until we make a loud noise
And the hidden ones speak up…
