I think the band speaks of 'dancers' as almost like 'puppets'. Brandon is speaking of letting go, "platform of surrender" "cut the cord" "close your eyes, clear your heart" This "letting go" is to cease to be "Human" because he no longer has life, (eyes closed, cleared heart) and he feels like a "Dancer", a puppet on strings.

The puppet versus human contrast is throughout. To be human is to have life and choice. To be dancer is to be controlled by strings or "cords"

He uses a play on words, instead of "vital signs" his "signs are vital" and "my hands are cold", i.e. lifeless, he is lifeless, and reading his signs are vital in knowing what he really is. He goes on to "say goodbye" to everything (soul and romance, etc), embarking into that "open door"

Like a slouched puppet, he's on his knees. Puppets have no strength in their legs. Yet he wants to "be let go" and to "cut the cord" could refer to losing his strings and being freed from control, no longer being a puppet. Or it could refer to no longer being human. If you "cut the cord", you pull life support on someone. In mythology, The Fates, "cut your cord" and you die, no longer with the life that makes one Human.

The great thing about this song is I can't figure out if he decided he is "human" or "dancer" and maybe he hasn't decided either, "Am I human....or am I dancer."

Great song after a couple of listens, gotta love the Killers

I loved the overall beat of Human, and most of the lyrics I found amazing. But what does he mean by dancer? The word denser would have worked out so much better.

Hi my name is Human, the song created by the Killers and I just want to say that even I hate myself. If I had legs I would jump off a bridge into a flaming pile of spike filled dog shit.

if you like this song, throw away/smash/burn/disintegrate your ipod, because undoubtedly it is full of shit the human race will be better off without.

I think Humans is the Killers worst song they've ever released. Why does everyone keep vouching for them when they so blatantly suck since Hot Fuss?

I agree with "Minimart"
Theres really not many bands like that anymore that i can find. This new single is pretty good start, I think the cd will be pretty great.
Btw There was nothing wrong with Sams town it was an amazing cd itself.

I'm a big Pet Shop Boys fan - used to listen to them obsessively under the covers on my Walkman when I was teeny. All growed up now, and I've loved the Killers since Hot Fuss. This song's just beautiful - I've just listened to it five times in a row, and I'm not bored yet.
