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

And that was when I ruled the world

But that was when I ruled the world

I used to roll the dice

Roman Calvary choirs are singing

Listen as the crowd would sing

But that was when I ruled the world

Be my mirror, my sword and shield

My missionaries in a foreign field

People couldn't believe what I'd become

Roman Calvary choirs are singing

Revolutionaries wait

My missionaries in a foreign field

Once you go there was never

It was the wicked and wild wind

And I discovered that my castles stand

Next the walls were closed on me

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
