:iconimpala99:
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;
and I discovered that my castles stand
upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand.

Chorus
I hear Jerusalem bells are 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.

Revolutionaries wait
for my head on a silver plate.
Just a puppet on a lonely string;
Oh, who would ever want to be king?

Chorus
I hear Jerusalem bells are 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...

(Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh...)

Chorus
I hear Jerusalem bells are 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...
