"Torchlight" is a song by Australian singer-songwriter Missy Higgins, written for the Australian film Don't Tell, a true story about a young girl seeking justice against the church.[1] In the ballad, Higgins sings of the issues explored in the film: "Sometimes evil is a quiet town where nobody wants to hear your truth / and nobody wants to believe you."[2]
The track was released on 5 May 2017.[3]
In November, the song won an APRA Screen Music Award for Best Original Song Composed for Screen. This was Higgins' first APRA Screen Music Award.[4] It is also the song played at the end of last episode of season 1 in the Australian television series Janet King.
