gary morris - who am i? / the trial lyrics

Loading...

[valjean]
he thinks that man 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 d+mned

i am the master of hundreds of workers
they all look to me
can i abandon them?
how would they live if i am not free?

if i speak, i am condemned
if i stay silent, i am d+mned

who am i?
can i condemn this man to slavery?
pretend i do not feel his agony?
this innocent who wears my face
who goes to judgеment in my place
who am i?
can i conceal mysеlf for evermore?
pretend i’m not the man i was before?
and must 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?

[valjean appears in front of the court.]

who am i?—
i’m jean valjean

[valjean unb+ttons his shirt to reveal the number tattooed to his chest.]

and so, javert, you see it’s true
that man bears no more guilt than you!
who am i? 24601!
