Imagine Dragons- Radioactive :-)
Haha thanks for posting, the whole album is pretty awesome, but I agree this one stands out on it!
EDIT:
For some reason this track stands out for me as well..
Imagine Dragons - Demons
I think because the feeling of wanting to be in the light but knowing you're "demons" are free inside. They think they can not overcome the shadow, thus they reach out with a ache. But at the same time, hide themselves in fear of hurting what they love.
Well something like that I feel here, its so moving 
Demons is like 'Skeletons in the Closet' We all have them and We're All working on exercising them. Demons are things like bad habits that you need to break. Like me, I need to stop smoking. That's a 'demon' I am fighting.
Radioactive has to do with 'activating your Heart chakra' Listen to Gym Class Heroes..........."Stereoheart" and Tune In.......or Tune Out!
Listen to music like reading ancient texts with an allegoric point of view. As Above...........So Below.
Here's another one.............try and wrap your head around the 'true' meaning of his lyrics........He even says str8 UP!.........."and this car is just a metaphor for my experience"
1st Verse:
I hear it, the spirit
and I don't fear it
matter 'fact I steer it
right in the heart of the hardships,
I dont veer it
and this car is just a metaphor for my experience
no registration or insurance,just a license to ill,
God's hands on the wheel, and my pedal's to the cielin', peelin'
Speedin like 24 frames through the lights,
with the traffic cameras filmin, brights
so i could see the brilliance of this life ive been givin', livin'
to start a revolution every minute.
driven to win it, no breaks, no pittin'
position ya soul, keep ya windows tinted
so we can see out it, but they cant see in it
so this is ours, and them theirs rented,
cars moving at top gear, Jeremy Clarkson
i feel like this my first track and I aint even start rolling?
2nd Verse:
The sky's got fire, the storm is almost near us
But thats when I'm the clearest. when things are the severest.
I'll be here for its arrival and for its disappearance.
Broadcastin' live and clear, even with the interference.
See this is what it sounds like when (love?/life?)becomes lyric.
The best thing ever, you should really come and hear it.
But if you cant, cool. We'll be coming to your nearest, soon.
Shinnin' like two suns, is better than two thumbs
The whole plot's to get you to stop from doing what you do, to do better than you've done.
______we ________ the _____ in the room. Who dares not to scare the _____ boom.
Unaffected by your werewolves, (ghosts???) and your ____.
The tour through the tombs don't do nuttin to 'em.
neva'
I turn the pressure into treasure.
My problem's in the presence
and my present to foreva'
Sorry if this has been posted but.............these guys are FINALLY on TOP!!!!
PLEEEEEEEEEEEEASE LISTEN!!!!! Your Higher Self asked me to share this with You
