Sine from Above
Lady Gaga Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I was young, I prayed for lighting
My mother said it would come and find me
I found myself without a prayer
I lost my love and no one cared
When I was young, I prayed for lightning

Yeah, I looked
With my face up to the sky
But I saw nothing there
No, no, nothing there
Yeah, I stared
While my eyes filled up with tears
But there was nothing there
No, no, nothing

I heard one sine from above
I heard one sine from above
Then the signal split in two
The sound created stars like me and you
Before there was up, there was silence
I heard one sine
And it healed my heart, heard a sine

Healed my heart, heard a sine
Healed my heart, heard a sine

When I was young, I felt immortal
And not a day went by without a struggle
I lived my days just for the nights
I lost myself under the lights
When I was young, I felt immortal

Yeah, I looked
With my face up to the sky
But I saw nothing there
No, no, nothing there
Yeah, I stared
While my eyes filled up with tears
But there was nothing there
No, no, nothing

I heard one sine from above
I heard one sine from above
Then the signal split in two
The sound created stars like me and you
Before there was up, there was silence
I heard one sine
And it healed my heart, heard a sine

Healed my heart, heard a sine
Healed my heart, heard a sine

Then the signal split in two
The sound created stars like me and you
Before there was up, there was silence
I heard one sine
And it healed my heart, heard a sine

Healed my heart
Healed my
Heart, heard a
Sine




Healed my
Heart, heard a sine

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Lady Gaga's song "Sine From Above" seem to speak of a yearning for something more, for a connection with the divine that has been lost. Gaga seems to be reminiscing about her youth, when she still had faith and hope that she would be struck by lightning, a symbol of divine intervention. However, as she grew older, she became disillusioned and lost her faith, losing the love she had once cherished.


The first verse describes this loss with sadness and regret, as she looks to the sky and finds nothing, no sign of the divine. Yet in the chorus, her tone changes as she hears a single sine from above, a sound that splits and creates stars, perhaps symbolizing the spark of creativity and inspiration that can be found in the silence if one listens closely enough. This sound, Gaga suggests, can heal the heart and bring comfort even in the midst of darkness.


The second verse echoes this theme of disillusionment, with Gaga feeling immortal but struggling to find meaning in the days that stretch endlessly before her. Again, she looks to the sky and sees nothing, but the memory of that single sine from above still haunts her and brings her comfort. The repetition of the chorus suggests that this sound truly has the power to heal and transform, reminding us that even in times of despair, there is still hope for something better.
