I Know Now
AMNERIS
How did I end up here?
are all the gods angry
that I lived my life so foolishly ,
so almost thoughtless?
This is my big day...
It's over, before it even began.
I closed my eyes to what I could see
but couldn't bear it.
I blamed the stars,
fate, the phase of the moon,
and I was blind to the truth,
the delusion of my empty existence.
I see it now, and it stings me,
I see it now, and it breaks me...
And that it has gone this far.
What do I still want with him?
What am I still holding on to?
Even if he stays with me all his life
I'm only a burden to him.
This is my big day...
It's over, before it even began.
I closed my eyes to what I could see,
but couldn't bear.
I gave up the blame the stars,
I asked the gods for advice.
and I was blind to the truth:
I saw it a little too late.
But I see it now, and it breaks me...
I saw it a little too late,
too late.
