Interesting thoughts so far by everyone. Kudos to "luciuss" on pointing out the recurring themes that are present in both this solo effort and in what The Killers have done in the past. I, too, think this is about a relationship where one party is saved, so to speak. So many times, we hear the stories of the knight in shining armor coming in and saving the damsel in distress; but why can't it be a dude in distress being saved by his dame in shining armor? That's what I see here: a girl who is stronger than her male, and both being okay with that.
@iceman4785 I agree with your analysis. But you're being quite heteronormative. You're saying "why can't there be a dame saving the knight?". I'm replying - why must there be a dame and a knight? ❤️

@louisetide - yeah, i see what you're saying. heteronormative or not, flowers's video does indeed have a man and a woman (flowers himself and charlize theron). i can only assume that my interpretation was based on that :)
