Kanariya - what's the English being sung?

I'm just curious if anyone knows *all* of the English lyrics that are sung by the background vocalists in Kanariya? (the guy + the chorus)

posted in order

"If only I can see that I..."

"Nobody knows (the) reason why..." 2x

"Nobody cares, inside me..."*

"You should just open your eyes."

"Finding my heart, make me cry again."

* = the only line I can't really make out... ^^; but it sounds right I think.

I like to pay full attention to any English backing vocals in Ayu's songs as Ayu wrote these lyrics too (I assume). They often present a 'capsule' meaning in English about the song.

It works! It took forever for me to figure out what she was saying in "Forgiveness!"

Well, that is assuming that what I THINK she is saying is ACTUALLY what she is saying!

Am I the only one who, when nobody is around, suddenly bursts out, "If only I can see that I!!!!" and various other English lines from kanariya?
