Background

In an interview, she said it was written after her breakup. She felt depressed and tried to run away, so she flew to New York City and stayed for a week. One day, she walked in a very crowded street and saw the clown blowing bubbles. It is a very beautiful scene but in her eyes, although bubble was beautiful, it was fragile. She metaphors bubble to lies, beautiful but fragile, and when it exposed, it hurts so deep. This is how her come up with the song.[5]

Critical response

The song started with lower key which likes telling the fragility of love and commitment; and the powerful part sounds like she had seen through the bubble-like love and starts a new life.[6]
