Coldplay - Viva la Vida
I used to rule the world / 大千世界曾由我主宰
Seas would rise when I gave the word / 巨浪也曾因我之命澎湃
Now in the morning I sweep alone / 如今我清晨独扫
Sweep the streets I used to own / 清扫我曾经拥有的街道
I used to roll the dice / 凡人生死曾由我主宰
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes / 尽情品味惊恐在死敌瞳孔绽开
Listen as the crowd would sing: / 听人群高唱
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!" /“ 先王亡矣！新王万代！”
One minute I held the key / 此刻我手握权位经脉
Next the walls were closed on me / 深墙遂将我紧闭
And I discovered that my castles stand / 恍然发现我的城池
Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand / 基底散如盐沙,乱似尘埃
I hear Jerusalem's bell's ringing / 听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing / 罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海
Be my mirror my sword and shield / 担当我的明镜，利剑和盾牌
My missionaries in a foreign field / 我的传教士屹立边疆之外
For some reason I can not explain / 只因一些缘由我无法释怀
Once you know there was never, never an honest word / 一旦你离开这里便不再，不再有逆耳忠言存在
That was when I ruled the world / 而这便是我统治的时代
It was the wicked and wild wind / 凛冽邪风呼啸袭来
Blew down the doors to let me in. / 吹散重门使我深陷阴霾
Shattered windows and the sound of drums / 断壁残垣，礼崩乐坏
People could not believe what I'd become / 世人不敢相信我已当年不再
Revolutionaries Wait / 起义大军翘首期待
For my head on a silver plate / 有朝一日我站上断头台
Just a puppet on a lonely string / 恰如傀儡随吊线寂寞摇摆
Oh who would ever want to be king? / 悲哉，谁又曾渴望万人膜拜？
I hear Jerusalem's bell's ringing / 听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing / 罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海
Be my mirror my sword and shield / 担当我的明镜，利剑和盾牌
My missionaries in a foreign field / 我的传教士屹立边疆之外
For some reason I can not explain / 只因一些缘由我无法释怀
I know Saint Peter won’t call my name / 我亦知天堂之门不会为我敞开
Never an honest word / 不再有逆耳忠言存在
But that was when I ruled the world / 但这却是我统治的时代
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
Hear Jerusalem's bell's ringing / 听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing / 罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海
Be my mirror my sword and shield / 担当我的明镜，利剑和盾牌
My missionaries in a foreign field / 我的传教士屹立边疆之外
For some reason I can not explain / 只因一些缘由我无法释怀
I know Saint Peter won’t call my name / 我亦知天堂之门不会为我敞开
Never an honest word / 不再有逆耳忠言存在
But that was when I ruled the world / 但这却是我统治的时代
Oh
