[Present] Time is over

This might be my favorite harder rock YH song - I like that this was the beginning of songs like "robot" and "one more time" where he really expressed how he felt about the industry and what he goes through on a daily basis

Thank you so much for all the translations of the lyrics in "Present". I have been listening to the album all day long, cant't stop. The high lighted part of the lyrics...breaks my heart for him all over. It seems his emotions in this song or the way he expressed them here are even more progressed since the original Japanese version. More poignant and more determined. Again, I marvel at his genius of giving songs a fresh feel just with a different language, still telling the same story. The innocent and still somewhat child like sleeping face of him in today's MHIYD keeps overlapping when I am hearing his pain in these songs, still aching....

Love love love how strong his lyrics are. This must have been his mantra that's allowed him to keep picking himself up after every set back.

Knowing that beneath all that gorgeous, gentle, charismatic, positive, playful hunk of a man is one who is this strong and determined makes him all the more sexier.
