  • I Know The Truth from the Broadway musical Aida. Lyrics and music by Tim Rice and Elton John. I do not own anthing. All rights belong to Tim Rice, Elton John and Universal Distribution.
    Amneris:
    How did I come to this?
    How did I slip and fall?
    How did I throw half a lifetime away
    Without any thought at all?
    This should have been my time
    It's over, it never began
    I closed my eyes to so much for so long
    and I no longer can
    I try to blame it on fortune
    Some kind of shift in a star
    But I know the truth and it haunts me
    it's flown just a little too far
    I know the truth and it mocks me
    I know the truth and it shocks me
    It's flown just a little too far.
    Why do I want him still?
    Why when there's nothing there?
    How to go on with the rest of my life
    To pretend I don't care
    This should've been my time
    It's over-It never began
    I closed my eyes to so much for so long
    and I no longer can
    I try to blame it on fortune
    Some kind of twist in my fate
    But I know the truth and it haunts me
    I learned it a little too late
    Oh I know the trth and it mocks me
    I know the truth and it shocks me
    I learned it a little too late
    Too late

    when they did this show at my high school, the girl who played amneris told me that she couldn't perform this without crying. When i saw the show, i was bawling my own eyes out by this scene and i saw that Amneris had tears rolling down her cheeks just as much as I did but her voice didn't break once. She was incredible! I'm pretty sure she goes to a really good music school now for theatre, thank god, because I would kill to see her on Broadway. I'm sure Sherie Rene Scott's performance was just as fantastic as my friend's and I'm sad that I was only like three years old when this came out on broadway lol. I wish I could have seen it. It's one of my all-time favorites.

      The production that I saw wasn't the original broadway cast, but I still can't even talk about it without crying! I even got to crying in the middle of the British Museum about it and had to go to the ladies' room and calm down! lol

    Poor Amneris...god this show must be emotionally draining for the performers. I can only imagine how much more powerful and impactful this number was live.

    this song resonates deep within me. hauntingly beautiful. and so, so sad. Crying at "why do I want him still, why? When theres nothing there. How to go on with the rest of my life to pretend I dont care." . . It could not be more my situation. It hurts

    왜 내가 여기에
    어쩌다 이렇게
    반평생을 아무 생각없이 살아왔던걸까
    내 시간 이제는 끝났고 다신오지않아
    눈 감은 채 버린시간들 더는 그럴수없어
    운명의 장난인걸까 하늘의 뜻 이었나..
    허나 이젠 난 알게 됬어 조금 멀리왔다는 걸
    난 진실을 알게됬어 그게나를 비웃어도..
    이젠 돌이킬수 없어
    아직도 나는 왜 그이를 원할까
    아무일도 없었던것처럼 살아갈수있을까
    내 시간 이제는 끝났고 다신 오지않아
    이 세상을 모두 가진채로 나혼자 였던거야
    운명의 장난인걸까 하늘의 뜻이였나..
    허나이젠난 알게됬어 조금 멀리왔다는 걸
    난/ 진실을 알게 됬어 그게 나를 비웃어/ 도..
    이제는 돌이킬수.. 없어 없어
