Coldplay - Viva La Vida

One minute I held the key

"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

Oh who would ever want to be king?

Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes

I used to rule the world

For my head on a silver plate

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing

But that was when I ruled the world

And that was when I ruled the world

I used to roll the dice

But that was when I ruled the world

Roman Calvary choirs are singing

Listen as the crowd would sing

Be my mirror, my sword and shield

My missionaries in a foreign field

People couldn't believe what I'd become

Revolutionaries wait

My missionaries in a foreign field

Roman Calvary choirs are singing

And I discovered that my castles stand

It was the wicked and wild wind

Once you go there was never

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing

Next the walls were closed on me
