Making ofThe fourth album was recorded during
2012, after the end of the massive world tour supporting “This is War”
The band has come up with a new direction and has experimented new sounds. In 2011, Tomo said “Night of the Hunter” was in line with what the future would sound like
In April 2012, Jared played some of the new tracks on VyRT. It was the first time Tomo and Shannon heard then too
Echelon Conference London 2013
Up in the AirThen, the first single “Up in the Air” was
released and the world came crashing down. Since it debuted, March 18th, criticism has hit hard.
Some Echelon LOVE the new sound – which reminisces on Search & Destroy and Closer to the Edge in it’s upbeat – and some Echelon HATE it. People have announced they are leaving the fandom because they don’t like this (R)EVOLUTION
Lyric video surpassed one million views on YouTube one week after its release
Echelon Conference London 2013
Up in the Air“The recorded version is a big, huge, fun,
energetic Thirty Seconds to Mars song and we’re so incredibly proud of it. We hope you guys love it. It’s called “Up in the Air” and it’s the first song we’ve confirmed the title to.”
Jared Leto during VyRT: The Mars Lab
So, he warned us.

VyRT SONGSA lyrics analysis
Echelon Conference London 2013
Northern Lights
Don’t ever take a single second to breatheThey’re gonna send me on a murdering
spree
I cannot wait to dance upon your grave
They don’t even have a soul left to be savedBut you eat your young
Echelon Conference London 2013
Northern Lights
We swam among the Northern Lights
And hid behind the edge of nightAnd waited for the dawn to
comeAnd sang a song to save us all
Echelon Conference London 2013
Northern Lights
I am alive just playing deadI’m gonna say what should have never
been saidThe giants of the world crashing
downThe end is near, hear the
trumpet sound
Echelon Conference London 2013
End of DaysI’m tired of waiting for the end of all
daysThe prophets are preachingThat the Gods need the
prayersHeadlights are coming showing me
the waySerpents are singing a song that’s
meant to say
Echelon Conference London 2013
End of Days
All we need is faith All we need is faith
Faith is all we need
Echelon Conference London 2013
End of DaysThe desert is calling
The emptiness of space
The hunger of a lion is written on your face
A maniac’s love songDestruction is his gameI found a new direction ‘Cause I had lost my way
Echelon Conference London 2013
Both songs are dark, almost triumphant in reverse. They mix their heart’s darkness with social criticism and a sense of destruction, overcomed by what ultimately saves us all – music and faith.
The lyrics seem simpler on this album. Not in any way less meaningful
Echelon Conference London 2013
City of AngelsThere was truth, there was
consequenceAgainst you, a weep defense
Then there’s me, I’m seventeenLooking for a fight
All my life I was never thereJust a ghost running scared,
Here where dreams are madeThe one.
Echelon Conference London 2013
City of AngelsLost in the city of angels
Down in the comfort of strangers I found myself in the vibrant
hillsAnd let the beauty light
Brought my faith straight from hell, second sight has paid of well
Echelon Conference London 2013
Bright LightsI’ve been dreaming of things yet to
comeLiving, learning, watching,
burning eyes on the sunI’m leaving, gone yesterday
Brutal, laughing, fighting, fucking
The price I had to pay
Echelon Conference London 2013
Bright Lights
Bright lights, big city (She dreams of love)
Bright lights, big city (He lives to run)
To run
Echelon Conference London 2013
Bright LightsDemon, where did my angel go? Faking, frapping, stupid, perfect
You are the oneA new day A new age A new face A new lay A new love A new drug A new me A new you
Echelon Conference London 2013
WitnessWitness, tell me, what you think
of my life?Judge me, jury, if I’m wrong or I’m
rightI’ve got secrets and lies that
would blow your mindYou’re the one who taught me not
to loveI’m the one who taught you to say
no
Echelon Conference London 2013
WitnessAway I goAway I goAway I go
Away I am
A ghost

Cross the lineI lost, then found Dark heart, underground
My life, insane Nothing I would changeWe’ve crossed the lineWe’ve crossed the line
My heart on fire No love, just desire. My life, insane, nothing I would change
We’ve crossed the line(never coming back)We’ve crossed the line (never coming back)
Echelon Conference London 2013
Overflow
I lost my directionGone in the overflow
Looking for the answers
Only time can tell
Echelon Conference London 2013
Biographic much? Jared let’s us inside is own personal history and feelings. How Los Angeles became his home, building him up and tearing him down over and over again.
“Bright lights” might be one of the most beautifil and emotional songs MARS have ever released. Watch out, Alibi.
“Witness” was praised after VyRT. Not sure it made it into the album
Echelon Conference London 2013
Wanna know something interesting? They cut out some lyrics from “Up in the Air”
Echelon Conference London 2013
Up in the AirFrom VyRT: “I’ve been up in the air, out
of my head. Stuck in a moment of emotion I distroyed
Is this the end I feel?Up in the air, fucked up on life
I can remember your surrender cut like a knife
Is this the end?”
Echelon Conference London 2013
Up in the Air
I’ll wrap my hands around your neck so tight with love,
love
