and fill in the gaps
with the words in bold:
with the words in bold:
would - king - singing - world (2) - blew - head - used - mornings
couldn't - streets - sound - ringing - walls - eyes - cannot

seas would rise when I gave the word
now in the 2__________ I sweep alone
sweep the 3__________ I used to own
I 4___________ to roll the dice
feel the fear in my enemy's 5 __________
listen as the crowd 6___________ sing:
“now the old king is dead! Long live the king!”

shattered windows and the 13 _________ of drums
people 14 ________ believe what I'd become
revolutionaries wait
for my 15 ________ on a silver plate
just a puppet on a lonely string
oh who would ever want to be 16 __________ ?
Chorus
