Mr.Children - Hero



This song really inspired me alot, well.. u would probably feel nothing if you don't care about yourself and the people around you. Think for a while.. that you could do something about everything to make a change, to make things better for people and yourself. This song is a song for every person, every real strong person, but of course with unseen weakness from inside. I love the person I love and anybody else which means alot to me.
This is the english translated lyrics to the song.

Supposing that the world could be saved
by one person giving their life in exchange,
I would be the man who waits until someone else has volunteered.

All those dear to me have made me a coward.

I don’t expect to be like my idols
whose actions and mannerisms I imitated as a child.
But I’d like to be a hero,
just for you,
to reach a hand out to you,
when you stumble or fall.

To make an awful movie more exciting
they casually kill off people on screen.
But they’re wrong, what we want to see is a light full of hope.

the slightly smaller hand in my hand
silently melts away the gloom in my heart.

the many spices that one needs to really taste life’s full course
are prepared for everyone.
sometimes they’re bitter
and you’ll think the taste astringent.
and then you’ll eat your last desert with a smile.
I want to be next to you.

through the cruel passage of time,
surely even I’ve become adult enough.
I’m not sad, and it doesn’t hurt
just having kept going, and keeping going
is enough to make me happy, is precious.

I always want to be a hero,
just for you,
there’s nothing mysterious about it,
at this point there’s nothing to hide.
but I want to be a hero,
just for you
to reach a hand out to you,
when you stumble or fall.
