Description
Childhood always shines brighter in our memories than it actually was: playing until dark, dreaming of wonderful flights, and believing that only good things lie ahead. But the balloon flies away, and it turns out that some illusions have disappeared with it. Losses remain on the road, and in our hands we are left with only strange symbols like banana peels, which are so easy to slip on.
In the song, sadness and humour live side by side, like two old neighbours. You can smile even in difficult moments, because life itself is a cocktail of melancholy and absurdity. And in this combination there is a special honesty: a little absurd, a little painful, but completely real.
