歌词
I used to rule the world
我曾经主宰世界
Seas would rise when I gave the word
大海也愿为我咆哮
Now in the morning I sleep alone
如今我清晨独眠
Sweep the streets I used to own
在我曾拥有的井巷中仿徨
我经历过孤注一掷
I used to roll the dice
感受我敌人眼中的恐惧
Feel the fear in my enemies eyes
领教过愚民们高喊口号
Listen as the crowd would sing
“如今先王已逝，吾王万岁”
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the King!"
这一分钟我刚拿到钥匙
One minute I held the key
下一刻城墙已将我囚禁
Next the walls were closed on me
我这才发现我的城堡
And I discovered that my castles stand
竟建立在散沙盐粒之上
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
我听见耶路撒冷的钟声在响
罗马骑兵唱诗班正在吟唱
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
做我的镜子，宝剑和盾牌
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
我的传教士在国外的土地
Be my mirror my sword and shield
因为一些原因我无法解释
My missionaries in a foreign field
一旦你知道没有一句诚实的话
For some reason I can not explain
那是当我主宰这个世界的时候
Once you know there was never, never an honest word
凶猛的风袭来
That was when I ruled the world
冲破门将我押入
破败的窗子和战鼓的声音
It was the wicked and wild wind
没有人能预测我的结局
Blew down the doors to let me in
革命者等待
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
我的头颅摆上银盘
People could not believe what I'd become
我不过是个孤独之线上的傀儡
Revolutionaries wait
哦，有谁愿意做王呢
For my head on a silver plate
我听见耶路撒冷的钟声在响
Just a puppet on a lonely string
罗马骑兵唱诗班正在吟唱
Oh who would ever want to be King?
做我的镜子，宝剑和盾牌
我的传教士在国外的土地
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
因为一些原因我无法解释
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
我知道圣彼得不会唤我的名字
Be my mirror my sword and shield
从没有一句真话
My missionaries in a foreign field
这就是我主宰世界的时候
For some reason I can not explain
我听见耶路撒冷的钟声在响
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
罗马骑兵唱诗班正在吟唱
Never an honest word
做我的镜子，宝剑和盾牌
And that was when I ruled the world
我的传教士在国外的土地
因为一些原因我无法解释
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringings
我知道圣彼得不会唤我的名字
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
从没有一句真话
Be my mirror my sword and shield
这就是我主宰世界的时候
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can not explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
