[romaji & translation] Last Links

[freedreamer]

I really love the lyrics. Its like..the entire song is a story. I love lyricists who do that...playing with the words in choruses to make them slightly different yet mean different scenarios. (if you dunno what im saying...its something like Beyonce's If I Were A Boy)

now the question is...WHY LAST LINKS?
i love how she said blue star..

hmm, this is just my interpretation, but "last links" for me means that the sensation and emotion she's describing in this song is the last, final tie that holds the world and people together -- knowing we're connected no matter the distance, knowing we're not alone even if we stand alone, etc. those thoughts are the final, but most important, bonds between us.

ETA: Masa, might I suggest "soothed" in place of both calmed AND stopped? Soothed means the same thing as calmed, but it sort of implies something more poetic and gentle -- http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/soothed To soothe is usually associated with one person soothing another person, which ties in with what you said about Ayu talking about stopping someone else's anger.
