Capricorn (A Brand New Name)

30 Seconds to Mars · 30 Seconds to Mars [2002]

So I run and hide and tear myself up

Start again with a brand new name

And eyes that see into infinity

I will disappear

I told you once and I'll say it again

I want my message read clear

I'll show you the way, the way I'm going

So I run and hide and tear myself up

Start again with a brand new name

And eyes that see into infinity

I was almost there

Just a moment away from becoming unclear

Ever get the feeling you're gone?

I'll show you the way, the way I'm going

So I run and hide and tear myself up

Start again with a brand new name

And eyes that see into infinity (into infinity)

So I run, start again

With a brand new name

With a brand new name

So I run and hide and tear myself (so I run)

Start again with a brand new name (start again)

And eyes that see into infinity (with a brand new name)

I will disappear
