[00:00.000] |

[00:15.090] |
I used to rule the world |
[00:19.410] |
Seas would rise when I gave the word |
[00:22.220] |
Now in the morning I sleep alone |
[00:27.000] |
Sweep the streets I used to own |
[00:31.140] |
|
[00:46.710] |
I used to roll the dice |
[00:50.960] |
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes |
[00:54.320] |
Listen as the crowd would sing |
[00:58.650] |
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!" |
[01:01.850] |
One minute I held the key |
[01:06.210] |
Next the walls were closed on me |
[01:09.090] |
And I discovered that my castles stand |
[01:13.770] |
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand |
[01:16.590] |
|
[01:18.200] |
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing |
[01:22.020] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
[01:25.730] |
Be my mirror, my sword and shield |
[01:29.220] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
[01:32.690] |
|
[01:33.690] |
For some reason I can't explain |
[01:37.370] |
Once you're gone there was never |
[01:40.620] |
Never an honest word |
[01:44.940] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
[01:47.250] |
|
[02:03.810] |
It was the wicked and wild wind |
[02:08.250] |
Blew down the doors to let me in |
[02:11.310] |
Shattered windows and the sound of drums |
[02:16.000] |
People couldn't believe what I'd become |
[02:19.250] |
Revolutionaries wait |
[02:23.620] |
For my head on a silver plate |
[02:26.870] |
Just a puppet on a lonely string |
[02:31.430] |
Oh who would ever want to be king? |
[02:34.060] |
|
[02:36.120] |
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing |
[02:39.810] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
[02:43.560] |
Be my mirror, my sword and shield |
[02:47.370] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
[02:51.350] |
For some reason I can't explain |
[02:55.000] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
[02:58.750] |
Never an honest word |
[03:02.750] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
[03:12.900] |
|
[03:21.870] |
Woahahahah oh, woahahah oh |
[03:54.490] |
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing |
[03:57.990] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
[04:01.870] |
Be my mirror, my sword and shield |
[04:05.620] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
[04:08.860] |
|
[04:09.400] |
For some reason I can't explain |
[04:13.150] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
[04:17.330] |
Never an honest word |
[04:20.830] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
[04:23.330] |
