Human
The Killers攀 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When the call came down the line
Up to the platform of surrender
I was broad but I was kind
And sometimes I get nervous
When I see an open door
Close your eyes
Clear your heart
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 dancer?
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 goodbye
Wish me well
You got to let me go
Are we human?
Or are we dancer?
My sign is vital
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answer
Are we human?
Or are we dancer?
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 got to 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?
The lyrics of the song Human by The Killers talk about the existential question of whether we are truly human or just ‘dancers’. The singer is reflecting on their own experiences and confusion about life and identity. They mention being nervous about new opportunities and contemplating whether they should take the risk and ‘cut the cord’ to pursue them.
The following verses talk about paying respect to grace and virtue, giving regards to soul and romance, and bidding farewell to devotion. This suggests that the singer is someone who has experienced many things in life, even while feeling uncertain of their own identity. The final lines ask if our hearts are still beating, questioning whether we are truly alive or just going through the motions of life.
The lyrics are open to interpretation and can be interpreted as a reflection on society as a whole, urging people to question their identities and purpose in life. The combination of the existential lyrics and the upbeat melody creates an interesting contrast, capturing the idea of the singer being torn between different emotions.

I did my best to notice
I tried to be attentive
When the call came down the line
When someone reached out to me
Up to the platform of surrender
To the point where I gave up
I was broad but I was kind
I had an open mind and heart
And sometimes I get nervous
And sometimes I feel anxious
When I see an open door
When there is an opportunity
Close your eyes
Take a moment to reflect
Clear your heart
Let go of any negativity
Cut the cord
End the attachment
Are we human?
What does it mean to be human?
Or are we dancer?
Are we merely performing a role?

Are you still alive?
