Viva La Vida

*** “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 I used to roll 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 minute I held the key Next the walls were closed on me I discovered that my castles stand Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand ... It was the wicked and wild wind Blew down the doors to let me in The shattered windows and the sound of drums People couldn’t believe what I’d become Revolutionaries wait For my head on a silver plate I’m just a puppet on a lonely string Oh who would ever want to be king? Now I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing Roman Calvary choirs are singing Be my mirror, my sword and shield 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 That was when I ruled the world...“ _________________________________________________ *Film: Les Misérables *Music: Viva La Vida by Coldplay *Would you fund me? *Facebook: *Ask: *Tumblr: *Twitter:
