HEART OF SWORD ~yoake mae~

T.M. Revolution's song 'HEART OF SWORD ~yoake mae~' delves into the struggles and complexities of life and love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of an individual grappling with the challenges of their journey, feeling the weight of their efforts often going unnoticed or unrewarded. The phrase 'ひとりでは　とおいあしたを' (Alone, the distant tomorrow) suggests a sense of isolation and the daunting nature of facing the future alone. This sentiment is further emphasized by the recurring theme of missed connections and misunderstandings, as seen in 'こんやもまた　すれちがい' (Tonight again, we pass by each other).

The song also explores the idea of perseverance despite the hardships. Lines like 'さんざんすぎて　どりょくのあとも' (After all the efforts) and 'やるだけそんするよな　まいにちは' (Every day feels like a loss) reflect the frustration of continuous effort without visible results. However, there's a sense of resilience and determination embedded in the lyrics, as the protagonist continues to push forward, hiding their true struggles and living in the moment, 'あつくてつらいじぶんをかくして　みじかいときをいきてる' (Hiding the hot and painful self, living in the short time).

Love, with all its complications, is another central theme. The lyrics describe a love that endures despite repeated misunderstandings and conflicts, 'なんどきみに　けつまずいても　もどってきちゃう　あいじょうに' (No matter how many times I stumble over you, I come back to love). This enduring love is contrasted with the idea of fate and destiny, questioning the balance of life and the role of luck, 'しぬまでにつかいきる　うんのかず' (The amount of luck to use up until death). Ultimately, the song suggests that deep connections can withstand the trials of life, even if they often seem to miss each other, 'あいしょうよりもふかいふたりは　すれちがって　かまわない' (Two people deeper than compatibility, it doesn't matter if they pass by each other).
