What my interpretation is getting out of a destructive situation because in the music video, in a bar, a pedophile is with an elementary school girl and getting her drunk, probably to take advantage of her, there is a stripper who looks sickly, a man who stands up for a woman who is being verbally abused by her boyfriend and stands up for him, but is brutally beaten, and a very obese woman with a sick veteran and in the end, the ones in trouble all float away toward a light, what I think symbolizes a new beginning, the girl escaping the pedophile, the stripper doing something better with her life, the man brutally beaten having his wounds healed and the woman he stood up for being OK, and the woman, I believe, passing away, allowing the veteran to get the correct help he needs. It truly is haunting and beautiful and is my favorite Kings of Leon song, for there is so much emotion poured into the lyrics.
