Like a Prayer
We Are the Fallen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I hear you call my name and it feels like
Home.
When you call my name, it's like a little
Prayer. I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you
There. In the midnight hour, I can feel your
Power. Just like a prayer, you know I'll take you there
I hear your voice, it's like an angel sighing.
I have no choice, I hear your voice, feels like
Flying. I close my eyes, oh God, I think I'm
Falling, out of the sky. I close my eyes, Heaven
Help me.
When you call my name, it's like a little
Prayer. I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you
There. In the midnight hour, I can feel your
Power just like a prayer. You know I'll take
You there.
Like a child, you whisper softly to me. You're
In control just like a child, now I'm dancing.
It's like a dream, no end and no beginning.
You're here with me, it's like a dream. Let
The choir sing.
When you call my name, it's like a little
Prayer. I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you
There. In the midnight hour, I can feel your
Power, just like a prayer. You know I'll take
You there.
When you call my name, it's like a little
Prayer. I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you
There. In the midnight hour, I can feel your
Power just like a prayer. You know I'll take
You there.
Life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone.
I hear you call my name and it feels like
Home.
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me
There. Just like a muse to me , you are a
Mystery. Just like a dream, you are not what
You seem. Just like a prayer, no choice,
Your voice can take me there.
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there. It's
Like a dream to me. Just like a prayer, I'll
Take you there. It's like a dream to me. Just
Like a prayer, I'll take you there. It's like
A dream to me. Just like a prayer, I'll take
You there. It's like a dream to me.
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me
There. Just like a muse to me, you are a
Mystery. Just like a dream, you are not what
You seem. Just like a prayer, no choice,
Your voice can take me there.
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there. It's
Like a dream to me. Just like a prayer, I'll
Take you there. It's like a dream to me. Just
Like a prayer, I'll take you there. It's like
A dream to me. Just like a prayer, I'll take
You there. It's like a dream to me.
The lyrics to We Are the Fallen's song Like A Prayer are filled with religious imagery as the singer describes the feeling of being called by a higher power. The line "Life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone" is an acknowledgment of the uncertainty and confusion that can come with living, but it is followed by the comforting thought of feeling at home when called by the divine. The chorus emphasizes the power of being called by a name, comparing it to a prayer and expressing a desire to be taken to a higher place. The second verse further explores the feeling of being lifted up by the voice of the divine, describing it as being like flying and being out of control. The singer asks for heaven's help in surrendering to this feeling.
The bridge of the song introduces a childlike quality to the imagery, as the singer is whispered to softly and feels like she is dancing without a beginning or end. The final repetition of the chorus emphasizes the mysterious and dreamlike qualities of being called by a divine voice.
Overall, the song explores the tension between feeling lost and alone in life and the comfort and power that can come from being called by a higher power. The repeated imagery of being taken to a dreamlike or mysterious place emphasizes the transformative nature of this experience.

They just kill it. They put the Rock in this version! Even all these years later I still hope that they'll do another album. It's sad that I only discovered them in 2020. A really great band.

Rumors say that Ben Moody wrote a lot of material for a potential new album... Who knows?
