viva la vida 为什么是生命万岁

Viva La Vida
生命无上

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
我曾经主宰世界。
大海也愿为我咆哮。
如今我清晨独眠，
在我曾拥有的井巷中彷徨。

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
我经历过孤注一掷，
感受过敌人眼底的不可终日，
领教过愚民们高喊口号：
“先王亡矣！我王永世！”

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
大权刚刚在手，
城墙即将我禁闭。
我这才发现我城堡的基石
竟如散沙盐粒般脆弱无力。

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
