Uzalud Pitas Ko Ide

Haustor's song 'Uzalud Pitas Ko Ide' delves into the complexities of love, fear, and the passage of time. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a relationship marked by innocence and naivety, symbolized by the 'crne oci' (black eyes) that seem untouched by the harsh realities of life. This innocence is juxtaposed with the inevitable arrival of fear and uncertainty, suggesting that love games are often blind to the looming shadows until fear is all that remains.

The song's narrative voice questions the sincerity of the relationship, pondering whether it was all just a game. The imagery of reaching a wall ('stigla do zida') and the absence of a comforting presence ('doma nema goluba da te miluje') evoke a sense of isolation and impending doom. The mention of heavy rains and lightning over the city further amplifies the atmosphere of tension and foreboding, as the protagonist futilely asks 'ko ide' (who is coming), highlighting a sense of helplessness and inevitability.

Despite the somber tone, the song ends on a somewhat hopeful note, urging to 'ugasi sve, budi vesela' (turn off everything, be happy) because love is just beginning for them. This shift suggests a resilience and a willingness to embrace love despite its challenges. The recurring imagery of distant guards and singing boys adds a layer of nostalgia and longing, as if the past and future are intertwined in a continuous dance of love and fear. Haustor's unique blend of poetic lyrics and evocative imagery makes 'Uzalud Pitas Ko Ide' a poignant exploration of the human condition, capturing the delicate balance between hope and despair in the journey of love.
