Cover art for A Beautiful Lie lyrics by 30 Seconds to Mars

MrFokker- that's a great opinion; i like to look at life like an RPG coz there's VERY little difference... This is my take on the song: "try to let go of the truth; the battles of your youth; coz this is just a game"- Leto speaks such pivotal truths about the life of mortality. And i agree with MusicIsTheSoul (great screen name) for the most part; personally i wouldn't say he's saying life sucks by the lie makes it beautiful.I think he's saying that everything in existence is a lie; an illusion- but its beautiful by nature.

I agree, especially with the video they shot in the arctic, the idea about everything in exsistence is a lie but its beautiful by nature fits perfectly. =]
