Les Misérables

Javert's suicide
JAVERT WALLKS THE DESERTED STREETS TILL HECOMES TO A BRIDGE OVER THE RIVER SEINE.JAVERTWho is this man?What sort of devil is heTo have me caught in a trapAnd choose to let me go free?It was his hour at lastTo put a seal on my fateWipe out the pastAnd wash me clean off the slate!All it would takeWas a flick of his knife.Vengeance was his and he gave me back mylife!Damned if I'll live in the debt of a thiefDamned if I'll yield at the end of the chaseI am spit his pity right back in his faceThere is nothing on earth that we shareIt is either Valjean or Javert!How can I now allow this manTo hold dominion over me.This desperate man whom I have huntedLetras de cancionesHe gave me my life. He gave me freedom.I should have perished by his handIt was his rightIt was my right to die as well.Instead, I live... but live in hell.And my thoughts fly apartCan 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 those years?My heart is stone and still it tremblesThe world I have known is lost in sahdow.Is he from heaven or from hell?And does he knowThat, granting me my life todayThis man has killed me even so?I am reaching but I fallAnd the stars are black and coldAs I stare into the voidOf a world that cannot hold.I'll escape now from the worldFrom the world of Jean Valjean.There is nowhere I can turnThere is no way to go on...HE THROWS HIMSELF INTO THE SWOLLEN RIVER.
