[00:12.221] |
I used to rule the world |
[00:15.581] |
Seas would rise when I gave the word |
[00:17.891] |
Now in the morning I sleep alone |
[00:21.551] |
Sweep the streets I used to own |
[00:30.321] |
I used to roll the dice |
[00:33.621] |
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes |
[00:36.390] |
Listen as the crowd would sing |
[00:39.850] |
Now the old king is dead |
[00:41.200] |
Long live the king |
[00:42.450] |
One minute I held the key |
[00:45.780] |
Next the walls were closed on me |
[00:48.60] |
And I discovered that my castles stand |
[00:51.770] |
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand |
[00:55.300] |
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing |
[00:58.280] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
[01:01.299] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
[01:04.209] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
[01:07.289] |
For some reason I can't explain |
[01:10.308] |
Once you're gone there was never |
[01:12.768] |
Never an honest word |
[01:15.957] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
[01:24.316] |
It was the wicked and wild wind |
[01:28.16] |
Blew down the doors to let me in |
[01:30.386] |
Shattered windows and the sound of drums |
[01:34.176] |
People couldn't believe what I'd become |
[01:36.796] |
Revolutionaries wait |
[01:40.85] |
For my head on a silver plate |
[01:42.425] |
Just a puppet on a lonely string |
[01:46.195] |
Oh who would ever want to be king |
[01:49.595] |
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing |
[01:52.655] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
[01:55.635] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
[01:58.485] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
[02:01.655] |
For some reason I can't explain |
[02:04.674] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
[02:07.394] |
Never an honest word |
[02:10.324] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
[03:02.144] |
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing |
[03:05.124] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
[03:08.104] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
[03:11.14] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
[03:14.114] |
For some reason I can't explain |
[03:17.34] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
[03:19.834] |
Never an honest word |
[03:22.804] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
