Big Sky
John O'Callaghan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm walking blinded through your door.
This is a sense of things to come,
This innocence oh, oh.
Breathe in this moment, it's come and gone
Further and faster through your soul.
Open your eyes and breathe some more,
Release yourself, it's a big sky.
Reveal yourself, it's a big sky.
We love, we leave, we take, we give.
Release yourself, it's a big sky.
It's a big sky
It's a big sky
I know this silence - been here before.
I'm walking blinded through your door.
This is a sense of things to come,
This innocence, oh, oh.
Breathe in this moment - it's come and gone
Further and faster through your soul.
Open your eyes and breathe some more,
Open your mouth, oh, oh.
Release yourself, it's a big sky.
Reveal yourself, it's a big sky.
We love, we leave, we take, we give.
Release yourself, it's a big sky.
It's a big sky
It's a big sky
Breathe in this moment.
Breathe in this moment.
Breathe in this moment.
It's a big sky!
Release yourself, it's a big sky.
Reveal yourself, it's a big sky.
We love, we leave, we take, we give.
Release yourself, it's a big sky.
It's a big sky.
We love, we leave, we take, we give.
Release yourself, it's a big sky.
It's a big sky.
It's a big sky
The opening lines of the song “I know this silence, been here before. I'm walking blinded through your door.” sets the tone for the rest of the song. It is about experiencing something familiar, but feeling lost or uncertain about what is coming ahead. The silence could represent a sense of waiting or anticipation, while the act of walking blindly through someone’s door suggests an invitation or a new opportunity that is being taken despite the unknown risk.
The second stanza, “Breathe in this moment, it's come and gone. Further and faster through your soul. Open your eyes and breathe some more. Open your mouth oh, oh.” encourages the listener to be fully present in the moment and to let go of any hesitation or fear. The repetition of the words “breathe” and “open” suggest a need to release one’s innermost self and embrace what is to come. The theme of surrendering oneself to the moment is strongly felt as the chorus repeats its liberating refrain “Release yourself, it's a big sky. Reveal yourself, it's a big sky. We love, we leave, we take, we give.”
The song celebrates the unknown and encourages the listener to embrace it wholeheartedly and without fear. It is about taking leaps of faith and being open to new experiences. The refrain “it’s a big sky” drives home the message of infinite possibility and suggests that everything is open and available to those who are willing to take the leap.

Guys, I'm a programmer. Listening to this song gives me more psychical energy to write my scripts than drinking a big amount of coffee. I love trance. I'm 21 years old, since I'm 12 I've been creating software, websites, smartphone apps etc. and I've never came in a better trance feeling than listening to this song. The quality of my apps and scripts always was depending on the music I listen. And listening to trance, will make my private community apps soon one of the best apps worldwide - I hope and I guess.
And I'm sure, when it comes to the big audience one day, I'll let anyone know my btw. our secret: LISTEN TO AWESOME TRANCE MUSIC TO FEEL EUPHORIC AND FEEL YOUR SOUL WORKING FOR YOU!
Thanks for all who create and compose that music. I'll keep listening to (Euphoric/Vocal) Trance, Techno, Hardstyle Techno and Jumpstyle until I die!
Let me recommend you the next song to listen definitely if you want to take a small 5 minutes break to dive deep into your soul and feel the nature, yourself and workaround your problems:
