This was the best rock video on the Mtv music awards.
I think the song is about someone finding faith. This person tried to govern his or her life without God, but they realized they needed both their spirituality and their individuality to live.
This is just my opinion, but I ascertain this from the past tense used in the refrain: "We WERE the kings and queens of promise," and the line, "Maybe the children of a lesser God between Heaven and Hell," meaning maybe God is just a figment of the imagination of several human beings on Earth (assuming Earth is located between Heaven and Hell).
The bridge is very suggestive of life after death: "The age of man is over... These lessons that we've learned here have only just begun." Then Leto switches into the present tense: "We are the kings/queens" suggesting he has found faith in God, but still maintains his individuality.
And it is also a really powerful video, because you see sometimes the people riding with their bikes and then again the singer, and the singer also singing really powerful and is singing really serious so the lyrics of the song make more sense in this case.
