"The Kill" (subtitled in its single release in America as "Bury Me" and in the UK as "Rebirth") is the second single from 30 Seconds to Mars' second album, A Beautiful Lie. Jared Leto described the meaning of the song as, "It's really about a relationship with yourself. It's about confronting your fear and confronting the truth about who you are." He has also said it is about "confrontation as a crossroads"—coming face-to-face with who you really are.
