Viva la vida - Coldplay - Lyrics
[00:12.65] I used to rule the world
[00:16.65] Seas would rise when I gave the word
[00:19.15] Now in the morning I sleep alone
[00:23.40] Sweep the streets I used to own
[00:40.40] I used to roll the dice
[00:44.40] Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
[00:47.40] Listen as the crowd would sing
[00:51.15] Now the old king is dead
[00:53.15] Long live the king
[00:54.40] One minute I held the key
[00:58.40] Next the walls were closed on me
[01:00.90] And I discovered that my castles stand
[01:05.15] Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
[01:09.15] I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
[01:12.65] Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[01:16.15] Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[01:19.65] My missionaries in a foreign field
[01:23.15] For some reason I can't explain
[01:26.65] Once you go there was never
[01:29.40] Never a honest word
[01:33.15] And that was when I ruled the world
[01:49.90] It was a wicked and wild wind
[01:53.90] Blew down the doors to let me in
[01:56.65] Shattered windows and the sound of drums
[02:00.65] People couldn't believe what I'd become
[02:04.15] Revolutionaries wait
[02:07.90] For my head on a silver plate
[02:10.65] Just a puppet on a lonely string
[02:14.90] Oh, who would ever want to be king?
[02:18.65] I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
[02:22.40] Roman Calvary choirs are singing
[02:25.90] Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[02:29.15] My missionaries in a foreign field
[02:32.65] For some reason I can't explain
[02:36.15] I know Saint Peter won't call my name
[02:38.90] Never an honest word
[02:42.65] But that was when I ruled the world
[02:59.15] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[03:02.65] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[03:05.90] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[03:09.40] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh…
[03:14.40] I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
[03:17.90] Roman Calvary choirs are singing
[03:21.40] Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[03:24.90] My missionaries in a foreign field
[03:28.40] For some reason I can't explain
[03:31.65] I know Saint Peter won't call my name
[03:34.90] Never an honest word
[03:38.15] But that was when I ruled the world
