Song lyrics

The song I chose for English is Viva La Vida, by Coldplay.   Here are the lyrics! ( btw, there's a link to the music video at the bottom of this post) :

Viva La Vida lyrics
songwriters: Berryman, Buy Rupert; Buckland, Jonathan Mark; Champion , Will; Martin, Christopher A J;

I used to rule the world
Seas would ries when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to role the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One mintue I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars os salt adn pillars of sand

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 go there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world

It was the 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

Revolutionaires wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonley string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

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

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
