COLDPLAY - VIVA LA VIDA LYRICS
I used to rule the world,
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleeep
Alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to rooll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy’s eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing!
‘Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!’
One minute I held
The key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand!
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing,
Roman Cavalry Choirs are singing!
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield,
My missionaries in a foreign field,
For some reason I can’t explain,
Once you’d gone there was never,
Never an honest word,
But that was when I ruled the world!
It was the wicked and wild wind,
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums,
And people couldn’t believe what I’d become
Revolutionaries wait,
For my head on a silver plate,
Just a puppet on a lonely string,
Oh who would ever wanna be king?
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing,
Roman Cavalry Choirs are singing!
Be my mirror, my sword, and shield,
My missionaries in a foreign field,
For some reason I can’t explain,
I know saint Peter won’t call my name!
Never an honest word,
But that was when I ruled the world!
Oh oh oh oh ooh oh
Oh oh oh oh ooh oh
Oh oh oh oh ooh oh
Oh oh oh oh ooh oh
Oh oh oh oh ooh oh
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing,
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing,
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field,
For some reason I can’t explain
I know saint peter won’t call my name
Never an honest word, but that was when
I Ruled the world!
