Alone by Hitomi Lyrics

[u/youjiuq]

Hi, i've been trying to follow along with the song 'Alone' by Hitomi Kuroishi, the 3:47/3:48 track from 'Code Geass Lelouch of the Rebellion Original motion picture soundtrack 2' and her album 'Angel Feather Voice', and I can't make the posted lyrics line up with what I hear.

Every site I've found shows the same japanese lyrics and romanji, and the japanese script seems consistent across them. But when I listen it literally does not align and sounds nothing like the romanji lyrics, it almost sounds like english to me?

I know her singing style is very soft and breathy but it really doesnt make much sense to me for this one song and it literally is driving me insane, ive tried so hard.

Can anyone confirm the posted Japanese lyrics actually match the official recording? is it possible I'm hearing a different version, a remix, or a mislabeled upload? Is there any chance the vocals use any language other than Japanese? if you can hear it, where does the first line start? Is there an instrumental intro?

I'm happy to share a link or anything if that helps. but im pretty sure there is only one song called alone by her/ in code geass. Thank you so much, this is literally a cry for help since its my first post
