• I used to rule the world
• seas would rise when i gave the world
• 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 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 castle stand
• upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
• i hear jerusalem bells a ringing
• roman cavarly choirs are singing
• be my mirror, my sword and shield
• my missionaries in a foreign field
• for same reason i cant explain
• once you go there was never
• never an honest word
