Coldplay – Viva la Vida Lyrics 11 years ago
You know - I tend to agree with you too - I played this song in my sociology class and all the different interpretations were interesting. Some students thought it was about a personal tragedy. I feel like it was about someone who had it all as you say and they 'crumbled'. He somehow misunderstood his world and feels cheated/fooled or blames himself but yes I also see the historical factors in this great song too and the relationship between power / fulfillment and loss.
