- Human LyricsI 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
Cut the cord
Are we human or are we dancers?
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human or are we dancers?
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've gotta let me go
Are we human or are we dancers?
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human or are we dancers?
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 dancers?
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 dancers?
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human or are we dancers?
Are we human or are we dancers?
Are we human or are we dancers?
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
Cut the cord
Are we human or are we dancers?
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human or are we dancers?
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've gotta let me go
Are we human or are we dancers?
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human or are we dancers?
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 dancers?
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 dancers?
My sign is vital, my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human or are we dancers?
Are we human or are we dancers?
Are we human or are we dancers?

A lot of the song's meaning revolves around the fight between personal self and social expectations, indicating the doubt and contemplation that one goes through while trying to relate one's self to the world. Human lyrics invariably point towards reflection, angst, despair, social commentary, and love gone wrong. Similarly, the song gives prime to existential questioning, resignation, and the search for meaning.

This song is based in a poem which spoke about how we need to decide I we are humans who can make their own choices, or simply dancers who perform the choreography determined by the choreographer (society)

Denser doesn't rhyme with answer. Dancers doesn't.Dancer does. Simple poetic licence perhaps? Personally, I've got more important things to get my knickers in a twist about.

Best song in ten years. It is Dancer, singular. That is another name for The Grigori and this refers to their demise and the end of humans. Basically the darkness is coming and good has left.

it's dancer, singular, brandon say it in several interviews. It's used as an adjetive and not as a sustantive. I think he's using like puppet or marionette, for the cut the cord and others.

It's DENSER. Dancer and dancers make absolutely no sense. Aren't dancers human too? By denser he means something more complex than humans. What a great song.

These lyrics are wrong: it's dancer (singular), not dancers (plural). And yes it would be hilarious if it were denser, but it isn't, if you think it is, perhaps you are denser.

For me the meaning is of almost being lifeless ie signs vital hands cold. I see being dancer is release from being grounded dull earthbound human just keeping to society norms, but there is a glimpse, with cord cut of a more complete satisfying free life found in spirituality a sense of eternal joy which can be, partly known now. I think my interpretation comes from my hope for life to the full, as a Christian being led by The Lord of the Dance. Also the tune with its powerful best makes me want to dance
