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
And I know what I know
And I know you're no good for me
Yeah I know what I know
And I know it's not meant to be
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 go there was never
Never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
Your eyes have told a thousand lies
But I believe them when they look in mine
I heard the rumors but you won't come clean
I guess I'm hoping it's because of me
And I know what I know (Revolutionaries wait)
And I know you're no good for me (For my head on a silver plate)
Yeah I know what I know (Just a puppet on a lonely string)
And I know it's not meant to be (Oh who would ever wanna be king)
Here's my dilemma
One half of me wants ya
And the other half wants to forget
My-my-my dilemma
From the moment I met ya
I just can't get you out of my head
And I tell myself to run from you
But I find myself attracted to my dilemma,
My dilemma, it's you, it's you
I could live without you
Your smile, your eyes
The way you make me feel inside
I could live without you
But I don't wanna
I don't wanna
You make me so upset sometimes
Here's my dilemma (Hear Jerusalem bells are ringing)
One half of me wants ya
And the other half wants to forget (Roman Cavalry choirs are singing)
My-my-my dilemma (Be my mirror my sword and shield)
from the moment I met ya
I just can't get you out of my head (My missionaries in a foreign field)
(Can't get you out of my)
And I tell myself to run from you (For some reason I can't explain)
But I find myself attracted to my dilemma, (I know Saint Peter won't call my name)
My dilemma, it's you, it's you (Never an honest word, but that was when I ruled the world)
It's you
It's you
It's you
It's you
It's you
It's you
It's you
It's you
My-my-my dilemma
