The Killers Human lyrics

 
I did my best to notice, when the call came down the line
Up to the platform of surrender, I was brought but I was kind
And sometimes I get nervous when I see an open door
Close your eyes, clear your heart... and cut the cord

Are we human, or are we dancer
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human, or are we denser

Pay my respects to grace and virtue, send my condolences to good
Give my regards to soul and romance, they always did the best they could
And so long to devotion you taught me everything I know
Wave good bye, wish me well, you gotta let me go

Are we human, or are we dancer
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human, or are we denser

Will your system be alright?
When you dream of home tonight
There is no message we're receiving
Let me know, is your heart still beating?

Are we human, or are we dancer
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer...
You've gotta let me know

Are we human, or are we dancer
My sign is vital my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human... or are we dancer

Are we human, or are we dancer
Are we human, or are we dancer

To arikay7591: The lyric is dancer!! Everyone should be laughing at you. Brandon Flowers has said in many articles that he is singing dancer.
The best meaning to this song I think is this: "As an adjective, human means free thinker. Meaning we can do what we want when we want. Dancer is refering to a puppet dancing on string. Having someone move you were they want you to go, thinking for you, and living our life like a routine that is all planned out."
This song is so amazing, I love The Killers!!

Brandon Flowers, the lead-singer of The Killers, has said that the song is a mild-political statement inspired by the quote "America is rasing a generation of dancers". I think the song is generally about today's generation losing their morals and prioritising irresponsibly.In regards to 'human and dancer', he is obviously implying that they're two different things.In the second verse he sings a send-off of morals ("grace and virtue", "good", "soul and romance", "devotion") - implying that humans used to/should have.As I see it, he uses "dancer" as a metaphor - dancers follow leads, they conform.

and just a response to lesboltz, that's good stuff. maybe also, trapped by the things we find in freedom. lost past the fence of the known.

alright, here's my take on it.

Human refers to freedom of choice, reminiscent of the judeo-christian view that we have free will.

dancers do nothing but respond with their body to the beat of a song, therefore dancer represents behaviorism, which is reminiscent of the secular humanist view of behaviorism, that we are nothing but automatons responding to our surroundings.
