Kagiri aru bokutachi no eien wo yumemiru merodii
Mune ni afureru itoshi sa no mizu wa
Mirai no hate de dare ka ni todoku darou
Shinji te iru yo
Haruka na toki wo kakenuke te
Ai wo tsumui de yukeru yo
Ima wa mada konnani chiisana hikari ga kedo
Wakari au yorokobi ni karada goto yaka re ta yoru ni
Kagiri aru nukumori no eien wo hajimete inotta
Kimi no tame ni kitto umare te ki ta to
Tada koe no kagiri ni sakebi tsuzuke tai
Yobi au koe ga toki wo koeru you ni
Furue te ta te wo toriatte

Bokura no mune ni hakana sa ga itsuka umare te ta

Mada mi nai chihei no hou he

The lyrics of "Calling" by FictionJunction KAORI are about two people who are singing together, looking up at the stars in the sky. They dream of an eternal melody which they will always sing, no matter where they are or how far apart they are. They believe that the love in their hearts will reach someone at the ends of the future, and they put their faith in this belief. They want to go beyond time and space, and the calling of their voices will create a big song someday.
The lyrics express a sense of hope and longing that is conveyed in the beautiful melody. The two people singing are connected by the love they share, which will never fade away. They call out to each other, hoping that their voices will reach across time and space to bring them together. The song is full of emotions, and the poetic language used creates a rich imagery that is easy to understand.

I wonder whether this song is a bit metaphor of the series of finding purpose in life.
When we live our daily lives we live under assumption that it would last forever that we are immortal. Like the immortals from the series. We don't have the idea that there is an end. This gives us similiar feeling of loneliness and melancholy. Being in one world forver without end. Like this sad, train rail going forever.
This is why we want to fill in this life with something like characters from baccano to fill in this "suppose" never ending life.
Firo, Maiza Ennis, Jacuzzi decided to fill it with loyalty to their friends
Issac and Maria decided to live very childish life having as much fun as possible.
Members of the daily days, Carol and Gustav decided to dedicate of expansion of knowledge and their curiosity of the world. Seeing world of limitless informations and interesting stories to gather, or tell.
Some decided in good way, some in bad way.....
others like Ladd and Szilard decided to find it in destruction, mayheam, greed and cruelty.
however, we still need to fill our "immortal" life with something. Even Llad and Szilard needed something that would give them a purpose to live.
Just like in Durarara, baccano presents that everybody needs some joy or happiness to fill in his life.
That's my interpretation ;)
both psychos like Izaya or Llad
and goog guys like Mikado and Masaomi wanted happiness in life and fill this "eternal" life with something.
