viva la vida - salvador peralta lyrics

[verse 1]
i used to rule the world
seas would rise when i gave the word
now in the morning, i sleep alone
sweep the streets i used to own

[verse 2]
i used to roll the dice
feel the fear in my enemy’s eyes
listened as the crowd would sing
“now the old king is dead, long live the king”

[pre*chorus 1]
one minute i held the key
next, the walls were closed on me
and i discovered that my castles stand
upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
[chorus 1]
i hear jerusalem bells a*ringing
roman cavalry choirs are singing
be my mirror, my sword and shield
my missionaries in a foreign field
for some reason, i can’t explain
once you’d gone, there was never
never an honest word
and that was when i ruled the world

[verse 3]
it was a wicked and wild wind
blew down the doors to let me in
shattered windows and the sound of drums
people couldn’t believe what i’d become

[pre*chorus 2]
revolutionaries wait
for my head on a silver plate
just a puppet on a lonely string (mmm, mmm)
oh, who would ever want to be king?

[chorus 2]
i hear jerusalem bells a*ringing
roman cavalry choirs are singing
be my mirror, my sword and shield
my missionaries in a foreign field
for some reason, i can’t explain
i know saint peter won’t call my name
never an honest word
but that was when i ruled the world
[bridge]
(oh*oh*oh, oh*oh*woah)
(oh*oh*oh, oh*oh*woah)
(oh*oh*oh, oh*oh*woah)
(oh*oh*oh, oh*oh*woah)

[chorus 2]
(oh*oh*oh, oh*oh*woah)
hear jerusalem bells a*ringing
(oh*oh*oh, oh*oh*woah)
roman cavalry choirs are singing
(oh*oh*oh, oh*oh*woah)
be my mirror, my sword and shield
(oh*oh*oh, oh*oh*woah)
my missionaries in a foreign field
(oh*oh*oh, oh*oh*woah)
for some reason, i can’t explain
(oh*oh*oh, oh*oh*woah)
i know saint peter won’t call my name
never an honest word
but that was when i ruled the world
