Jesus H Crist...Does every lyric in every line of every tune HAVE to have some hidden or obvious meaning? for that matter? I think not...Just my opinion of course, and everyone has one....
@nivikyesac sorry man as people thats what we do when something makes us feel good lol. This song reminds me of my youth which some I miss and the rest I'm always continually apologizing for...LOL!!! I'm gonna keep enjoying life and song take care all
this should be in hd and preferably updated just a bit (perhaps with Obama's win, end of the Shuttle, return of the rocket [spacex])... awesomeness would ensue
the song is ABOUT the French Revolution or Rome/The Bible. it has Bible references like the Jerusalem Bell, Roman Calvary, The castle stand on pillers of salt and sand. , Saint Peter who guarded the Gates of Heaven,
@minime9779725 You can interpret the lyrics any way you want.. there's an interpretation of these on the Yahoo Answers and it doesn't look that anti-christian to me. Didn't know the members of Coldplay are atheists though..
@minime9779725 What's so anti-Christian about it? It's about a king who lost his glory in this life and the next life " I know St.Peter won't call my name" aka I know Im not getting into Heaven.
@susankohistany I think if there is a good, loving God then everyone will go to heaven or cease to exist. If there is a heaven i'll be there. But I think there is probably no heaven or God. I think the most likely thing is that I will cease to exist. Job 14v10-14 & Ecclesiates 3v19 thought Man's fate is like the animals, all have the same breath / spirit. Matt 18v22 If Jesus told Peter to forgive 77 billion times 7, then gave Peter keys to heaven Matt 16v19; he'll call our name, & renew us
@zytigon Actually I'm not Christian...I'm Muslim,I believe in God and Heaven...but I don't think I'm good enough at the moment...may we all get there. God willing
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 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 not explain Once you know there was never, never an honest word That was when I ruled the world (Ohhh)

its true the rythm is really good and happy but when you listen closely to the words you realize the song is very dark.
It is talking bout hitler,french revolution and declines in catholicism.

My friend JeremyAbdo made this video. Look him up on YouTube and you'll find him. The video is not up because EMI took it down after a week.
Look him up, he has some funny and artistic videos.

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 enemies eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

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 not explain
Once you know there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
(Ohhh)

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People could not 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?
