| [00:16.04] |
I used to rule the world |
| [00:20.67] |
Seas would rise when I gave the word |
| [00:23.93] |
Now in the morning I sleep alone |
| [00:29.18] |
Sweep the streets I used to own |
| [00:33.73] |
|
| [00:41.66] |
I used to roll the dice |
| [00:46.25] |
Feel the fear in my enemies eyes |
| [00:50.22] |
Listen as the crowd would sing |
| [00:54.89] |
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the King!" |
| [00:58.38] |
One minute I held the key |
| [01:03.13] |
Next the walls were closed on me |
| [01:06.34] |
And I discovered that my castles stand |
| [01:11.94] |
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand |
| [01:16.10] |
|
| [01:16.58] |
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing |
| [01:20.89] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [01:25.13] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [01:29.25] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [01:33.63] |
For some reason I can not explain |
| [01:37.88] |
Once you know there was never, never an honest word |
| [01:45.88] |
That was when I ruled the world |
| [01:51.18] |
|
| [02:05.91] |
It was the wicked and wild wind |
| [02:11.22] |
Blew down the doors to let me in |
| [02:14.59] |
Shattered windows and the sound of drums |
| [02:19.83] |
People could not believe what I'd become |
| [02:23.67] |
Revolutionaries wait |
| [02:28.34] |
For my head on a silver plate |
| [02:31.50] |
Just a puppet on a lonely string |
| [02:36.86] |
Oh who would ever want to be King? |
| [02:40.01] |
|
| [02:41.52] |
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing |
| [02:45.81] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [02:50.08] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [02:54.08] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [02:58.49] |
For some reason I can not explain |
| [03:02.59] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [03:06.68] |
Never an honest word |
| [03:10.65] |
And that was when I ruled the world |
| [03:15.62] |
|
| [03:49.54] |
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringings |
| [03:53.84] |
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing |
| [03:58.02] |
Be my mirror my sword and shield |
| [04:02.18] |
My missionaries in a foreign field |
| [04:06.56] |
For some reason I can not explain |
| [04:10.56] |
I know Saint Peter won't call my name |
| [04:14.59] |
Never an honest word |
| [04:18.60] |
But that was when I ruled the world |
| [04:26.06] |
|
