The lyrics used in the picture are from Viva la Vida by Coldplay.
The whole time i drew this i listened to Viva la Vida about ten times, and then listened to other music while coloring, like Animal I have Become, Breathe Me, and I'm alright.

This was drawn for Soloo's challenge, 'inspiration'. The challenge was to base a drawing off of a song. I used Viva la Vida.

Here are the lyrics to Viva la Vida that I found on www.lyricsmode.com;

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 not explain
Once you know 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 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 not explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world.

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 not explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world.

-Viva la Vida by Coldplay

Aika still thinks she rules the world though. tis sad. She looks happy now, but she won't be when we remind her that the lyrics are 'I "USED" to rule the world.' lawlz also, even though the lyrics say 'king' Aika is female.
