Who Am I? – The Trial
guitar chords lyrics
He thinks that me is me, he knew him at a glance
This stranger he has found, this man could be my chance
Why should I save his hide? Why should I right this wrong?
When I have come so far and struggled for so long
If I speak, I am condemned
If I stay silent, I am damned
I am the master of hundreds of workers
They all look to me
Can I abandon them?
How will they live if I am not free?
If I speak, I am condemned
If I stay silent, I am damned
Who am I?
Can I condemn this man to slavery?
Pretend I do not feel his agony?
Who am I?
Can I condemn this man to slavery?
Pretend I do not feel his agony?
This innocent who bears my face, who goes to judgement in my place
Who am I?
Can I conceal myself forevermore?
Pretend I'm not the man I was before?
And mask my name until I die, be no more than an alibi?
Must I lie?
How can I ever face my fellow men?
How can I ever face myself again?
My soul belongs to God, I know
I made that bargain long ago
He gave me hope when hope was gone
He gave me strength to journey on
Who am I?
Who am I?
I'm Jean Valjean
And so Javert you see it's true
This man bears no more guilt than you
Who am I?
