GOO GOO DOLLS

- Black Balloon Lyrics

Baby's black balloon makes her fly
I almost fell into that hole in your life
And you're not thinking 'bout tomorrow
Cuz you were the same as me
But on your knees

A thousand other boys could never reach you
How could I have been the one?
I saw the world spin beneath you
And scatter like ice from the spoon that was your womb

Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Or are you someone's prayer?

You know the lies they always told you
And the love you never knew
What's the things they never showed you
That swallow the light from the sun inside your room, yeah

Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Always someone there

And there's no time left for losin'
When you stand they fall, yeah

Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
All because I'm
Comin' down the years turn over
And angels fall without you there
And I'll go on and I'll lead you home and
All because I'm
All because I'm
And I'll become
What you became to me

What is the meaning behind Black Balloon lyrics?


When we try to interpret the meaning, the Goo Goo Dolls' song, "Black Balloon," speaks to the plight of an individual grappling with a vice. The lyrics liken the addiction to a black balloon that allows one to soar but also causes one to fall. They show the polarizing effects of addiction on bonds, the sense of not being able to help it, and the wish to rescue the victim even in his or her deepest dark. Black balloon lyrics are predominantly about heartbreak, love, despair, angst, and the process of thinking. The song also points to loss and yearning as the main themes, and thus, the listeners are invited to undergo a reflection process on their past relationships and even search for an understanding. The lyrics are about emotional struggle and loss that might not be suitable for very young children. Even though there are no direct references to violence, sex, or drug use, there is an implied necessity for parental guidance owing to emotional depth and complexity of the themes.
