Javert's Suicide |
Who is this man? |
What sort of devil is he |
To have me caught in a trap |
And choose to let me go free? |
It was his hour at last |
To put a seal on my fate |
Wipe out the past |
And wash me clean off the slate! |
All it would take |
Was a flick of his knife |
Vengeance was his |
And he gave me back my life! |
Damned if I’ll live in the debt of a thief! |
Damned if I’ll yield at the end of the chase |
I am the Law and the Law is not mocked |
I’ll spit his pity right back in his face |
There is nothing on earth that we share |
It is either Valjean or Javert! |
And my thoughts fly apart |
Can this man be believed? |
Shall his sins be forgiven? |
Shall his crimes be reprieved? |
And must I now begin to doubt |
Who never doubted all these years? |
My heart is stone and still it trembles |
The world I have known is lost in shadow |
Is he from heaven or from hell? |
And does he know |
That granting me my life today |
This man has killed me even so? |
I am reaching, but I fall |
And the stars are black and cold |
As I stare into the void |
Of a world that cannot hold |
I’ll escape now from that world |
From the world of Jean Valjean |
There is nowhere I can turn |
There is no way to go on! |
