Song for my art project!!

VIVA LA VIDA

 

 

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 enemie's 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 the my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand


I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

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's 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?

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavaly choirs are singing
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

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
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


This is a song that I choose for my art project. It is a song by coldplay and  I have to make an album cover for it!! It is a quite interesting topic to do a project on but I'm actually writing on my blog about this because I cannot come up with any more ideas how I should make the album very creative. I don't know if someone will see my blog, but if you are please comment on my post about how you feel about this song and some ideas how I should make my album cover :)
Thank you~ (And maybe later, I'll post  my album cover here)
