What Have I Done

What have I done?
Sweet Jesus, what have I done?
Become a thief
In the night,
Become a dog on the run
Have I fallen so far
and is the hour so late?
That nothing remains
but the cry of my hate
The cries in the dark
that nobody hears
Here where I stand
at the turning of the years?
If there´s another way to go,
I missed it twenty long years ago
My life was a war
That could never be won
They gave me a number
And they murdered Valjean
When they chained me
And left me for dead
Just for stealing a mouthful of bread
Yet why did I aloud this man
to touch my soul
and teach me love?
He treated me
like any other
He gave me his trust
He called me brother
My life he claims for God above
Can such things be?
For I had come to hate the world,
This world that always hated me
Take an eye
for an eye
Turn your heart
into stone
This is all I have lived for
This is all I have known
One word from him
and I´d be back
Beneath the lash, upon the rack
Instead he offers me my freedom
I feel my shame inside me
like a knife
He told me that I had a soul
How does he know?
What spirits comes to move my life
Is there another way to go?
I am reaching, but I fall
And the night is closing in
As I stare into the void
To the whirlpool of mi sin
I´ll scape now from that world
From the world of Jean Valjean
Jean Valjean is nothing now!
