Sweep the streets I used to own
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
I used to rule the world
 
And I discovered that my castles stand
I used to roll the dice
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
Next the walls were closed on me
Listen as the crowd would sing
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
One minute I held the key
 
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
And that was when I ruled the world
Never an honest word
For some reason I can't explain
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Once you go there was never
My missionaries in a foreign field
 
Blew down the doors to let me in
It was the wicked and wild wind
Oh who would ever want to be king?
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Revolutionaries wait
 
My missionaries in a foreign field
Never an honest word
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
For some reason I can't explain
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
But that was when I ruled the world
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
 
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing
My missionaries in a foreign field
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
For some reason I can't explain
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
But that was when I ruled the world
Never an honest word
