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

Listen as the crowd would sing

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
missionary: 传教士 foreign: 国外的
For some reason I can't explain
for some reason: 由于某种原因
Once you go there was never
Never an honest word

And that was when I ruled the world
It was the wicked and wild wind
wicked: 坏的,邪恶的 wild: 狂暴的,暴风雨的
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 Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
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 Saint Peter won't call my name
Saint Peter: 圣彼得【人名】
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
