Viva La Vida

COLDPLAY

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

I 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

Once you know there was never, never an honest word

That was when I ruled the world(Ohhh)

It was the wicked and wild wind

Blew down the doors to let me in.

Shattered windows and the sound of drums

People could not 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?

I 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

And that was when I ruled the world(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)

Hear Jerusalem bells are ringings

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 will call my name

Never an honest word

But that was when I ruled the world

Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh

I always regarded people whom publish lyrics in their blogs to be plain lazy to type out stuffs. However, I have to contradict my personal opinion today as I have this very interesting song I would like to share with you all.. The song is entitled "Viva La Vida"..My first impression of this song was " Viva what the heck?!".. Even the first time I heard this song being played on my radio I quickly changed to the next track.. Firstly, I am not a fan of Coldplay's and secondly, I don't even know what the title means.. Fortunately, they played this song on the radio oneday and I liked the song!! Viva La Vida simply means "Death and All His Friends"... Sounds sadistic? At first I also had the same impression but after listening to the song several times I began to understand what the lyrics were trying to say and what they meant.. Lucky you, I am not going to blab about my "great discovery" here but It's a nice song.. Highly recommend it..

Well.. Consider yourself fortunate for I am willing to write an entry during my examination period when I should be studying hard for my exams... Nah, I am 3/4 done with it and the next paper is in another 6 more days..Hahaha.. I just wanted to have a short break before resuming to my studies.. I have been thinking a lot lately.. Don't worry.. This is not going to be an emotional post... Hahahaha.. I have been thinking about my future, my friends and what I have been doing... I realised that I have been wasting too much time on uneccessary stuffs like channelling my attention on unimportant things and trying to be helpful but ended up getting frustrated..As you know, the ego in people's heads nowadays is growing like a tumour.. I guess everyone has forgotten the simple yet meaningful value of humility.. Maybe we have been too pampered by our parents till we neglect the important things that we thought weren't important.. Friendship?? Hahaha.. Don't even get me started with that.. I really miss some of my friends though especially those studying abroad.. Many of my good friends are currently studying abroad and their absence is kinda having an effect on me.. I visited one of my friend's blog the other day and he wrote something about me( not the entire blog la..).. Things that I really didn't knew he would regard me as.. I was kinda touched.. You know who you are.. It's very obvious.. but thanks.. I wanted to write a comment in his blog but I decided not to.. not everything has to be expressed in words.. as long as you know I am thankful deep inside me, that is what counts.. I did mention once I was losing grip on something.. Don't get me wrong.. I wasn't going to fall but I was losing grip of myself.. I think I should take this upcoming holidays as a break and try to sort things out within myself.. Nevertheless, I am really looiking forward towards the holidays ... One piece of advise " Appreciate people whom are nice to you.. You may not know that you might lose them someday"- Not one good deed is too small nor too big.. It is whether you perform it is what counts.. Someone is going to learn his lesson soon.. That's all I can say..
