Javert
2
Who is this man?
3
What sort of devil is he?
4
To have me caught in a trap
5
And choose to let me go free?
6
It was his hour at last
7
To put a seal on my fate,
8
Wipe out the past
9
And wash me clean off the slate
10
All it would take was a flick of his knife,
11
Vengeance was his and he gave me back my life!
12
Damned if I'll live in the debt of a thief
13
Damned if I'll yield at the end of the chase
14
I am the law and the law is not mocked
15
I'll spit his pity right back in his face
16
There is nothing on Earth that we share!
17
It is either Valjean or Javert!
18
How can I now allow this man
19
To hold dominion over me?
20
This desperate man that I have hunted
21
He gave me my life.
22
He gave me freedom.
23
I should have perished by his hand
24
It was his right.
25
It was my right to die as well,
26
Instead I live, but live in hell
27
And my thoughts fly apart,
28
Can this man be believed?
29
Shall his sins be forgiven?
30
Shall his crimes be reprieved.....?
31
And must I now begin to doubt,
32
Who never doubted all these years?
33
My heart is stone, and still it trembles.
34
The world I have known is lost in shadow.
35
Is he from heaven or from hell?
36
And does he know,
37
That granting me my life today,
38
This man has killed me even so.
39
I am reaching but I fall
40
And the stars are black and cold
41
As I stare into the void
42
Of a world that cannot hold
43
I'll escape now from that world
44
From the world of Jean Valjean
45
There is no where I can turn
46
There is no way to go on!
47
[ Javert throws himself in the river]
