Lyrics: Coldplay - Viva la Vida

[Verse 1: Chris Martin]
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

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 2: Chris Martin]
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

[Chorus: Chris Martin]
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringin'
Roman cavalry choirs are singin'
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you'd gone, there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 3: Chris Martin]
It was a 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 (Mmm, mmm)
Aw, who would ever wanna be king?

[Chorus: Chris Martin]
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringin'
Roman cavalry choirs are singin'
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

[Bridge: Brian Eno, Guy Berryman, Jonny Buckland & Will Champion]
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
[Chorus: Chris Martin, Brian Eno, Guy Berryman, Jonny Buckland & Will Champion]
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
Hear Jerusalem bells are ringin'
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
Roman cavalry choirs are singin'
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
My missionaries in a foreign field
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
For some reason I can't explain
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

[Outro]
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm

This song shows so much emotion, it shows how hard life can be, but also how beautiful it can be. Life will never be easy, but it will always be worth it. If you’re reading this, I believe in you.

[JesusIsKing-db]

Brings back nostalgia and happiness at the same time😢😀

[wkxggxn]

This song makes me reflect on my past self, when I was surely a better person. I would travel to the past to just tell her to never change the person she was back then. It brings a lot of nostalgia to me.

[uomsf]

Childhood favorite song, I started to remember beautiful moments, I could hear him and my father driving in the rain 🌧️

[bredsheeran]

I can’t tell if I should cry right now or do something with my life

[nickplays]

This song is one of the best songs from coldplay

[ItsTimeToAnimate]

this song brings me sadness, happines and nostalgia at the same time 🥲🥲🥲

[MCUEDITS]

This song shows a lot more meaning than u think. It means that u should cherish what u have and do not waste money. U should be happy while you can and enjoy life. Do not waste whatever precious moments to study, eat or even sleep. Think of people who do not even have a house, or can barely afford anything. Cherish what u have and work hard. I know nobody will see this but if u do, just keep in mind that there are people who care for u and love u. ❤❤❤

[smoothlofi]

It's me, or this song makes you feel euphoric and more energized

[rosew]

[nami-namira]

Some in my life is going to be really good in 2 years it will feel like i am ruling the world ! To be continued

[King-then]

I used to be good but i am trash now 😢😢😢😢

[ErandiAmaNacer]

Recuerdo ser adolescente viajando en coche con mis amigos a todo volumen está canción, cantando a todo pulmón, riéndonos con el viento en mi cara, sin preocupaciones divertida, mamá me había dado permiso de ir de fin de semana a campar, que rico, no había hambre, sed, no había frío, no había calor, no había desamor, no haya preocupación, no había carencia, todo era reír y ser libre que ricos recuerdos ❤

[BrunaSouza-oudn]

Love it this is the song i use in most my edits

[SofiaGigliani]

Me encanta la canción la letra y sobretodo los violines 🎻 de fondo. Canta genial y la letra no tiene ninguna palabrotas . Felicidades por llegar hasta aki.

[JurgenSchulz-tdgv]

As I heard it my first time it became my favorite song.

[jainabajohn]

This song is the king of emotional songs

[SkyFre]

When you realize the name "viva la vida" means live life is just wholesome

[HockeyOnTop]

One of the only songs that will make me tear up

[KnowsV]
