[00:13.330]	What have I done sweet Jesus? What have I done?
[00:15.520]
[00:15.588]	Become a thief in the night? Become a dog on the run?
[00:18.240]
[00:18.930]	Have I fallen so far and is the hour so late?
[00:21.560]
[00:22.310]	That nothing remains but the cry of my hate?
[00:25.320]	The cries in the dark that nobody hears?
[00:28.0]
[00:28.800]	Here where I stand at the turning of the years
[00:33.210]
[00:33.830]	If there's another way to go, I missed it twenty long years ago
[00:38.280]
[00:38.960]	My life was a war that could never be won
[00:42.0]	They gave me a number, murdered Valjean
[00:44.800]	When the chained me and left me for dead
[00:46.800]
[00:46.830]	Just for stealing a mouthful of bread
[00:48.700]
[01:02.0]	Yet why did I allow that man, to touch my soul and teach me love?
[01:08.370]
[01:09.880]	He treated me like any other
[01:12.300]
[01:14.300]	He gave me his trust, he called me "brother"
[01:17.250]
[01:18.820]	My life he claims for God above. Can such things be?
[01:25.780]
[01:27.200]	For I had come to hate the world, this world that always hated me
[01:36.509]
[01:38.128]	Take an eye for an eye, turn your heart into stone
[01:44.700]
[01:45.759]	This is all I have lived for, this is all I have known
[01:57.360]
[01:58.550]	One word from him and I'd be back, beneath the lash upon the rack
[02:04.250]
[02:06.380]	Instead he offers me my freedom
[02:08.509]
[02:09.829]	I feel my shame inside me like a knife
[02:13.319]
[02:14.939]	He told me that I had a soul. How does he know?
[02:22.329]
[02:23.579]	What spirit comes to move my life? Is there another way to go?
[02:35.890]
[02:38.700]	am I reaching but I fall, and the night is closing in
[02:45.109]
[02:46.289]	As I stare into the void, to the whirlpool of my sin
[02:53.859]
[02:55.599]	I'll escape now from the world, from the world of Jean Valjean
[03:01.490]
[03:02.790]	Jean Valjean is nothing now! Another story must begin!!!
