Coldplay - Viva La Vida Lyrics
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
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listened 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
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
My missionaries in a foreign field
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
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?
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 St. Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh [5x]
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 St. Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Can we just thank cold play for making a song which would inspire a parody that would be a huge part of all of our childhoods?

It is okay to cry my brothers :(
"The cry 'Liberty, Equality, Fraternity or Death!' was much in vogue during the Revolution. Liberty ended by covering France with prisons, equality by multiplying titles and decorations, and fraternity by dividing us. Death alone prevailed."
- Louis de Bonald, 1817

Nobody will survive the infinity snap at the end.

I was 5 years old when this song got released on Youtube. I was exposed to this song after watching Fallen Kingdom, a Minecraft Parody, when I was 9 or 10 years old. Now I am 17 years old. Damn, time passes so fast.
UK,Spain,Portugal,France and Roman Empire:

This song exists:
Fallen kingdom comes out
Viva la Vida: I used to rule the world

The best song of the decade (technically not I know) but come on it's Viva La Vida
200k comments and all the top ones are new.
I just wanted to say, I'm crying for the new decade. We made it, guys! I'm freaking proud of you all for making it this far despite the world being a shitty place.
You guys got through that rough patch, got over that death, found someone to love and it doesn't end here. Let's move forwards, together.
I feel like want to jump of the castle from zombie
Aaaaaaahhaaaaaaaaahhhhaaaaaah

So... This video warned us about the events of Infinity War/Endgame 10 years before they aired... I hope the blip didn't affect these guys too poorly.
yo thanos snapped them at the end

Who's the lyric guy, I'm curious 🤔
Y’all remember NBA 2k13?😂
Humanes jajajaja que asco y lo peor es que no tiene nada que ver con el video jajajajja
Even in 2020 this is still a banger
the nostalgia hits even harder now 😥
My childhood.....
You know this isn't the first one you listened to
This song is still popular in 2035
Are we all going to ignore the fact that coldplays channel was created in 2010 but this video was posted in 2008?
