Into the Blue
Moby feat Mimi Goese Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All alone, I open my eyes

Wild ride
Hold your fire
I'm not about to die
Keep back
Let in some air I dare lie down
To stare at the sky
I am wide open
Reaching forever
I fly into the blue
I am wide open
Reaching forever
I fly into the blue
Flat mark
High tide
Frantic to stay afloat
Stay calm
Let in some air I dare lie down
To stare at the sky
I am wide open
Reaching forever
I fly into the blue
I am wide open
Reaching forever
I fly into the blue
>From above
I am so small
So fast
I move I move
The light the light
Here comes the tide
I am wide open
Reaching forever
I fly into the blue
I am wide open
Reaching forever
I fly into the blue
With water surrounding me
I am wide open
Reaching forever
And I fly into the blue
Into the blue
I am wide open
I am wide open
Reaching forever
Reaching forever
I fly
I fly into the blue
I am wide open
I am wide open
Reaching forever
Reaching forever
I fly into the blue
Into the blue
I am wide open




I am wide open
Reaching foreve

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Moby feat Mimi Goese's song "Into The Blue" describe the sensation of being completely immersed in the moment and feeling free. The opening line "All alone, I open my eyes" sets the scene of a solitary experience. The next line "Wild ride, hold your fire" suggests a powerful experience but also the desire to take control of it. The conflicting emotions of fearing death while still wanting to push on are apparent in the line "I'm not about to die, keep back, let in some air, I dare lie down to stare at the sky." The imagery of lying down and staring at the sky suggests a moment of complete surrender to the experience. The repeated lines "I am wide open, reaching forever, I fly into the blue" emphasize the sense of abandon and the desire to transcend everyday existence.
The second verse continues with the same theme, but with the added weight of struggling to survive. "Flat mark, high tide, frantic to stay afloat, stay calm, let in some air, I dare lie down to stare at the sky." It's as if the singer is battling against the elements but is still able to appreciate the beauty around them. The bridge shifts the focus from a personal experience to a universal one, with the lines "From above, I am so small, so fast, I move, I move, the light, the light, here comes the tide." The final repetition of the chorus emphasizes the idea that even in the face of chaos and uncertainty, there is still a sense of possibility and wonder.
