我的传教士屹立边疆之外
只因一些缘由我无法释怀
I used to rule the world
一旦你离开这里便不再
Seas would rise when I gave the word
不再有逆耳忠言存在
Now in the morning I sleep alone
但这便是我统治的时代
Sweep the streets I used to own
凛冽邪风呼啸袭来
吹散重门使我深陷阴霾
I used to roll the dice
断壁残垣礼崩乐坏
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
世人不敢相信我已当年不再
Listen as the crowd would sing
起义大军翘首期待
Now the old king is dead
有朝一日我站上断头台
Long live the king
恰如傀儡随吊线寂寞摇摆
One minute I held the key
悲哉，谁又曾渴望万人膜拜？
Next the walls were closed on me
听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
And I discovered that my castles stand
罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
担当我的明镜，利剑和盾牌
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
我的传教士屹立边疆之外
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
只因一些缘由我无法释怀
Be my mirror my sword and shield
我亦知天堂之门不会为我敞开
My missionaries in a foreign field
不再有逆耳忠言存在
For some reason I can't explain
但这便是我统治的时代
Once you go there was never
哦^6
Never an honest word
哦^6
But that was when I ruled the world
哦^6
哦^6
It was the wicked and wild wind
哦^5
Blew down the doors to let me in
听那耶路撒冷钟声传来
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
罗马骑兵歌声震彻山海
People couldn't believe what I'd become
担当我的明镜，利剑和盾牌
Revolutionaries wait
我的传教士屹立边疆之外
For my head on a silver plate
只因一些缘由我无法释怀
Just a puppet on a lonely string
我亦知天堂之门不会为我敞开
Oh who would ever want to be king
不再有逆耳忠言存在
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
但这便是我统治的时代
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
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Hear Jerusalem bells are 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
