Viva La Vida歌詞

[ti:viva la vida]
[ar:darin]
[00:13.04]i used to rule the world
[00:16.78]seas would rise when i gave the word
[00:19.42]now in the morning i sweep alone
[00:23.54]sweep the streets i used to own
[00:27.79]
[00:40.97]i used to roll the dice
[00:44.50]feel the fear in my enemy’s eyes
[00:47.73]listen as the crowd would sing:
[00:51.54]"now the old king is dead! long live the king!"
[00:54.75]one minute i held the key
[00:58.37]next the walls were closed on me
[01:01.46]and i discovered that my castles stand
[01:05.36]upon pillars of song, pillars of sand
[01:08.39]
[01:09.24]i hear jerusalem’s bell’s ringing
[01:12.85]roman cavalry choirs are singing
[01:16.43]be my mirror my sword and shield
[01:19.85]my missionaries in a foreign field
[01:23.40]for some reason i can not explain
[01:26.80]once you know there was never, never an honest word
[01:33.26]that was when i ruled the world
[01:38.89]
[01:50.18]it was the wicked and wild wind
[01:54.07]blew down the doors to let me in.
[01:57.08]shattered windows and the sound of drums
[02:01.03]people could not believe what i’d become
[02:04.43]revolutionaries wait
[02:07.87]for my head on a silver plate
[02:11.04]just a puppet on a lonely string
[02:15.08]oh who would ever want to be king?
[02:17.67]
[02:19.08]i hear jerusalem’s bell’s ringing
[02:22.47]roman cavalry choirs are singing
[02:25.99]be my mirror my sword and shield
[02:29.47]my missionaries in a foreign field
[02:32.90]for some reason i can not explain
[02:36.42]i know saint peter will call my name
[02:39.92]never an honest word
[02:42.77]but that was when i ruled the world
[02:47.37]
[02:59.76](ohhhhh ohhh ohhh)
[03:15.14]hear jerusalem’s bell’s ringing
[03:18.16]roman cavalry choirs are singing
[03:21.59]be my mirror my sword and shield
[03:24.95]my missionaries in a foreign field
[03:28.52]for some reason i can not explain
[03:31.94]i know saint peter will call my name
[03:35.44]never an honest word
[03:38.38]but that was when i ruled the world
