These are their album cover works...

This album included songs: Capricorn, Edge of the Earth, Fallen, Oblivion, Buddha for Mary, Echelon, Welcome to the Universe, The Mission, End of the Beginning, 93 Million Miles and Year Zero.  On July 29, 2002, 30 Seconds to Mars announced the new cover for the album after a dispute about their former band cover of a fighter jet exploding in mid air with the pilot safely ejected, which many people criticised.
 


A Beautiful Lie was re-released in 2007, following extensive touring throughout Europe, in an attempt to expose themselves to a larger audience. The re-release is essentially the same as the original release, although includes different artwork. The album was re-released in Ireland again in November 2007, the version contains the UK version of "The Kill" and a second bonus track, and an acoustic version of the song "A Beautiful Lie" recorded live on a radio session.

Songs on the album include Birth, Consiqudor, Up In The Air, City of Angels, The Race, End of all Days, Pyres of Varanasi, Bright Lights, Do or Die, Convergence, Northern Lights ad Depuis de Debut.
