one direction song lyrics

Viva La Vida

"Viva La Vida" 

Liam:

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 

Zayn:

I used to roll the dice 

Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes 

Listen as the crowd would sing: 

Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!

Niall:

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 

Všichni:

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 

Once you know there was never, never an honest word 

That was when I ruled the world 

aaaaahhhhhaaaahhhh

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 

Liam:

Never an honest word 

But that was when I ruled the world
