Viva la vida

I used to rule the world

Seas would rise when I gave the word

Now in the morning, I sleep alone

如今清晨 独睡孤枕

Sweep the streets I used to own

扫着曾属于我的街

I used to roll the dice

Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes

Listened as the crowd would sing

倾听人群齐声高唱

"Now the old king is dead, long live the king"

「旧王已死，新王万岁」

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

I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing

Roman cavalry choirs are singing

Be my mirror, my sword and shield

For some reason, I can't explain

Once you'd gone, there was never

Never an honest word

And that was when I ruled the world

It was a wicked and wild wind

Blew down the doors to let me in

吹倒了门 让我走入

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
