The Killers revamped their single "Land of the Free" on Sunday (June 7), adding new lyrics to address the death of George Floyd.

In the new, intimate performance of the 2019 one-off single on the band's Instagram, frontman Brandon Flowers changes the second verse of the song with references to Floyd's tragic passing. "When I go out in my car, I don't think twice/ But if you're the wrong color skin/ You grow up looking over both your shoulders/ In the land of the free/ How many killings must one man watch in his home/ Till he sees the price on the TV?/ Eight measured minutes and 46 seconds/ Another boy in the bag/ Another stain on the flag," he sings while playing the piano.
