Viva la Vida - Taylor Swift (Lyrics on description)

I USED TO RULE THE WORLD
SEAS WOULD RISE WHEN I GAVE THE WORD
NOW IN THE MORNING I SWEEP ALONE
SWEEP THE STREETS I USED TO OWN

I USED TO ROLL THE DICE
FEEL THE FEAR IN MY ENEMYS 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

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 CANT EXPLAIN
ONCE YOU GO 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 COULDNT BELIEVE WHAT ID 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 CANT EXPLAIN
I KNOW SAINT PETER WILL CALL MY NAME
NEVER AN HONEST WORD
BUT THAT WAS WHEN I RULED THE WORLD
(OHHHHH OHHH OHHH)

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 CANT EXPLAIN
I KNOW SAINT PETER WILL CALL MY NAME
NEVER AN HONEST WORD
BUT THAT WAS WHEN I RULED THE WORLD
OOOOOH OOOOOH OOOOOH

[StarJinx101]

This is good and all...

But still not as great as Coldplay's (original) version. :3

[kidsavs]

Not her song, the title is very misleading. It's a cover of Coldplay's Viva La Vida. You should really include that somewhere in the description, because she definitely did not produce this song.

[legoman0012]

I don't like her voice

[sammikazami]

@hahnznicole2213 yeah very disappointing

[sammikazami]

SLEEP alone not sweep

[faybay13]

I think her voice is too soft for this song. It's good and all but not that good. I give it a 3.5 tops.

[Skinspart]

awesome, really , but not as great as the original version .

[superhumansierra]

@Colour1832 Fuck off and keep your dumbass comments to yourself. !

[TheMicaela19]

LA CANCION ES DE COLDPLAY NO DE ELLA

[Colour1832]

ummm.... this is really sad...... Coldplay are real artists... country bums are not.

[cougarchic1994]

Newsflash people it's a song, doesn't mean she's catholic. And even if she is, why does it matter? We listen to her cause she's amazing, not because of her religion. People these days..
