"Viva La Vida"
Album: Others(2003-2025)
I used to rule the world
我曾君临天下
Seas would rise when I gave the word
我一声令下 海潮便汹涌而起
Now in the morning I sleep alone
清晨醒来 枕边只剩寂寞
Sweep the streets I used to own
我曾称霸的街头 如今只剩我独自徘徊
I used to roll the dice
我曾肆意挥霍青春
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
敌眼中恐惧在蔓延
Listen as the crowd would sing
人群的歌声在耳边回荡
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
"旧王已逝！新王万岁！"
One minute I held the keys
刹那间我手握权柄
Next the doors were closed on me
命运之门将我拒之门外
And I discovered that my castles stand
而我发现我的城堡依旧矗立
Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand
盐柱沙塔 终将崩塌
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
我听见耶路撒冷钟声回荡
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
罗马铁骑的歌声在回荡
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
做我的明镜 利剑与坚盾
My missionaries in a foreign field
异国他乡的传教士
For some reason I can't explain
莫名心绪难言说
Once you go there was never
你走后 世界再无色彩
Never an honest word
从未说过真心话
But that was when I ruled the world
可那时我正君临天下
It was a wicked and wild wind
那阵风狂野又邪魅
Blew down the doors to let me in
狂风撞开大门 迎我入内
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
碎窗伴着鼓声回荡
People couldn't believe what I'd become
世人皆惊我今非昔比
Revolutionaries wait
革命者在等待
For my head on a silver plate
我的头颅献上银盘
Just a puppet on a lonely string
我像提线木偶独自摇晃
Oh who would ever wanna be king?
谁愿戴上这孤独王冠
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
我听见耶路撒冷钟声回荡
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
罗马铁骑的歌声在回荡
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
做我的明镜 利剑与坚盾
My missionaries in a foreign field
异国他乡的传教士
For some reason I can't explain
莫名我就说不清
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
圣彼得不会唤我名
Never an honest word
从未说过真心话
But that was when I ruled the world
可那时我正君临天下
For some reason I can't explain
莫名心绪难言说
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
圣彼得不会唤我名
Never an honest word
从未说过真心话
But that was when I ruled the world
可那时我正君临天下
