Mr. Children

If the world could be saved
By one person giving their life in exchange
I would be the kind of man who waits for someone else to step up

All of the people that I love
Have turned me into a coward

I don't have any outrageous feelings
Like longing to be like
Those that I imitated the gestures and movements of
When I was young
But I would like to be a hero
Just for you
To quietly hold out my hand for you
If you stumble, or fall

In order to make a bad movie exciting
Lives are simply thrown away
That's wrong, what we want to see
Is a light filled with hope

The hand that is a bit smaller than mine, grasped in my own
Quietly melts the sediment in my heart

Many spices are prepared for everyone
In the full course meal, in order to taste life deeply
Sometimes they're bitter
And you'll think as much
And you'll eat your last dessert smiling
I want to be by your side

Throughout the harshly passing time
Certainly I've become enough of an adult
I'm not sad, I'm not hurt
Just repeating things like this
Yes, just repeating things like this
Makes me happy, it's precious to me

I'll always want to be a hero
Just for you
It's not confusing
I have no secrets now
But I would like to be a hero
Just for you
To quietly hold out my hand for you
If you stumble, or fall
