[00:12.75] I used to rule the world
[00:16.73] Seas would rise when I gave the word
[00:19.39] Now in the morning, I sleep alone
[00:23.64] Sweep the streets I used to own
[00:27.89] ♪
[00:40.90] I used to roll the dice
[00:44.62] Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
[00:47.54] Listened as the crowd would sing
[00:51.83] "Now the old king is dead, long live the king"
[00:54.48] One minute I held the key
[00:58.48] Next, the walls were closed on me
[01:01.14] And I discovered that my castles stand
[01:05.39] Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
[01:09.37] I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
[01:13.09] Roman cavalry choirs are singing
[01:16.54] Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[01:19.73] My missionaries in a foreign field
[01:23.45] For some reason, I can't explain
[01:26.90] Once you'd gone, there was never
[01:29.56] Never an honest word
[01:33.28] And that was when I ruled the world
[01:37.26] ♪
[01:50.05] It was a wicked and wild wind
[01:54.29] Blew down the doors to let me in
[01:56.95] Shattered windows and the sound of drums
[02:01.20] People couldn't believe what I'd become
[02:04.39] Revolutionaries wait
[02:08.11] For my head on a silver plate
[02:10.78] Just a puppet on a lonely string
[02:15.30] Oh, who would ever want to be king?
[02:19.01] I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
[02:22.73] Roman cavalry choirs are singing
[02:26.18] Be my mirror, my sword and shield
[02:29.38] My missionaries in a foreign field
[02:33.11] For some reason, I can't explain
[02:36.29] I know Saint Peter won't call my name
[02:39.48] Never an honest word
[02:42.94] But that was when I ruled the world
