Description
Balloons, light and innocent like a child's game, suddenly become the cause of disaster - almost like any good intention taken to absurd extremes by adults. The song has an '80s vibe: synthesizers, anxious fun, and the feeling that the apocalypse could begin to the beat of the dance music.
Beneath this lightness lies the dark sarcasm of a world where any stupidity can escalate into war, leaving only ruins and a lone balloon floating away into the sky. There is melancholy, reconciliation, and a strange feeling that maybe it's still possible to let go - not for victory, but simply so as not to lose humanity completely.
