Viva La Vida – Taylor SwiftBy I used to rule the worldSeas would rise when I gave the wordNow in the morning I sleep aloneSweep the streets I used to ownI used to roll the diceFeel the fear in my enemy’s eyesListen as the crowd would sing“Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!”One minute I held the keysNext the doors were closed on meAnd I discovered that my castles standUpon pillars of salt, pillars of sandI hear Jerusalem bells a-ringingRoman Cavalry choirs are singingBe my mirror, my sword and shieldMy missionaries in a foreign fieldFor some reason I can’t explainOnce you go there was neverNever an honest wordBut that was when I ruled the worldIt was a wicked and wild windBlew down the doors to let me inShattered windows and the sound of drumsPeople couldn’t believe what I’d becomeRevolutionaries waitFor my head on a silver plateJust a puppet on a lonely stringOh who would ever wanna be king?I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringingRoman Cavalry choirs are singingBe my mirror, my sword and shieldMy missionaries in a foreign fieldFor some reason I can’t explainI know Saint Peter won’t call my nameNever an honest wordBut that was when I ruled the worldFor some reason I can’t explainI know Saint Peter won’t call my nameNever an honest wordBut that was when I ruled the world www.pillowlyrics.com419786497975 88k 20
