I’m a hot air balloon that could go to space
With the air, like I don’t care baby by the way

Huh, because I’m happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof…

Here come bad news, talking this and that

Because I’m happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
Because I’m happy

There is a simile in ‘clap along if you feel like a room without a roof’. The person is compared to a room without a roof. A room without a roof is also an extended metaphor for sadness or abandonment. Personification is used when he says ‘bad news talking this and that’. Metaphor is used in the line, ‘I’m a hot air balloon that can go to space’. In the whole song the repetition of ‘because I’m happy’ is quite clear to stress on the word happiness

Lyrics :I close both locks behind the window.

The act of closing both locks could represent the person emotionally shutting themselves off or protecting themselves, not just locking a window.

I close both blinds and turn away.

Closing the blinds can symbolize shutting out the outside world or avoiding something, and turning away emphasises about turning away from something overwhelming.
