Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Dying Breed. By Songfacts®.

An overriding theme running through Imploding The Mirage is frontman Brandon Flowers' marriage to Tana Mundkowsky and whether two can become one. This song features what Flowers describes as "the prettiest or most romantic lyric" he's ever written. I'll be there when water's rising I'll be your lifeguard Flowers told NME: "I feel thankful for that. I want her to know that no matter what, I'm going to stay by her side and keep the promise."

Tana suffers from PTSD because of traumas experienced in her childhood. Her struggles with depression inspired many of Flowers' lyrics on The Killers' 2017 album, Wonderful Wonderful.

Flowers told Q magazine that musically, this song pulls together different Killers influences from across the years. "It's somehow captures Manchester and Bruce Springsteen," he said. "I think that's when we're at our best, when we're able to take these different elements and make them work."
