[00:12.79] I used to rule the world

[00:16.50] Seas would rise when I gave the word

[00:19.43] Now in the morning, I sleep alone

[00:23.67] Sweep the streets I used to own

[00:40.68] I used to roll the dice

[00:44.40] Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes

[00:47.85] Listen as the crowd would sing

[00:51.57] Now the old king is dead, long live the king

[00:54.75] One minute, I held the key

[00:58.47] Next the walls were closed on me

[01:01.13] And I discovered that my castles stand

[01:05.38] Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

[01:09.37] I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin'

[01:13.08] Roman Cavalry choirs are singin'

[01:16.27] Be my mirror, my sword and shield

[01:19.72] My missionaries in a foreign field

[01:23.44] For some reason, I can't explain

[01:26.90] Once you'd gone, there was never, never an honest word

[01:33.53] And that was when I ruled the world

[01:50.00] It was a wicked and wild wind

[01:53.99] Blew down the doors to let me in

[01:56.91] Shattered windows and the sound of drums

[02:01.16] People couldn't believe what I'd become

[02:04.62] Revolutionaries wait

[02:08.33] For my head on a silver plate

[02:11.26] Just a puppet on a lonely string

[02:14.97] Oh, who would ever want to be king?

[02:18.96] I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin'

[02:22.41] Roman Cavalry choirs are singing

[02:25.87] Be my mirror, my sword and shield

[02:29.32] My missionaries in a foreign field

[02:32.77] For some reason, I can't explain

[02:36.24] I know Saint Peter won't call my name

[02:39.75] Never an honest word

[02:42.93] But that was when I ruled the world

[02:57.28] Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh

[03:03.12] Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh

[03:06.57] Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh

[03:10.03] Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh

[03:13.48] Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh

[03:15.08] I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin'

[03:18.26] Roman Cavalry choirs are singin'

[03:21.45] Be my mirror, my sword and shield

[03:25.17] My missionaries in a foreign field

[03:28.37] For some reason I can't explain

[03:32.08] I know Saint Peter won't call my name

[03:35.00] Never an honest word

[03:38.45] But that was when I ruled the world
