Roll the dice

[Lestat]

Knock, knock! Is anybody home? I have a 'little' problem with the term: "roll the dice", in fact, it does not make sense to me:too_sad:. I'm wondering whether one of you guys can give me the precise meaning of it. Thanks in advance!

Thật ra anh thấy nó trong 1 bài hát, em biết đấy, lời bài hát có thể toàn lối nói bóng bẩy, không được rõ ràng cho lắm. Sau khi đặt ra câu hỏi không ai giúp được Lestat tự trả lời luôn: có thể nó mang tính may rủi, hay là liên quan tới fate gì đấy, đại loại thế. He he, cám ơn swan đã quan tâm nhé. Em biết thì nói anh nghe hen.
Viva La Vida
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 and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells a 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

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't 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 a 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
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

I hear Jerusalem bells a 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
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
