Coldplay - 2007
| 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 |
| I used to roll the dice |
| feel the fear in my enemies 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 castles stand |
| upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand |
|
| It was the wicked and wild wind |
| blew down the doors to let me in |
| Shattered windows and the sound of drums |
| People couldn't believe what I'd become |
| Revolutionaries wait |
| For my head on a silver plate |
| Just a puppet on a lonely string |
| Oh who would ever want to be king |
|
| Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh |
| Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh |
|
