有空去了解一下这段历史吧
《Viva la Vida》高中第一次听就忍不住放到手机里循环，歌词和旋律都气势磅礴，至今仍是最爱的歌曲之一。
也是因为这首歌，特意去看了路易十六和玛丽王后的那段历史，对玛丽虽谈不上喜欢，但她败寇后的顽强不屈确实值得尊敬，结局也挺令人唏嘘不已。
Just a puppet on a lonely string.
Who would ever want to be king?“他们都不过是平凡的普通人，他们既不残忍也不邪恶。相反，与大多数人一样，有着和善友好的基本品质。生于一个平凡时代，他们或许还是能受到人们的普遍尊敬。可悲的是，他们都不具备应付动荡混乱的杰出能力，在戏剧化的历史中顽强坚定地活着。他们注定只能不平凡的死去。”
——《断头王后》 斯蒂芬·茨威格 著

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 enemy'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 that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand
I hear Jerusalem's 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 cannot explain
Once you go there was never
Never an honest word
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 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's 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 cannot explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
Hear Jerusalem's 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 cannot explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
- End-
