lyrics

Bête Noire

The bleeding and bloodied stumps point
Shriveled fingers painting grievances in coagulated blood
And this is what we amass to
A gluttonous void of self affirmers and Davidian clones
Baring yellowed teeth of judgment and cast stones

Vehemently glaring outward but never to reflect
We sentence and strike like the wrath of the Golithian
Before the tsunami of spite and slant will put us in the ground

Reflection has been retired
And the sigh of the animus is all that’s left
A supporting cast of villains, pariahs, and the proud
Not a well wisher in sight

To the deceivers, lay a posy of miasma on the grave
For the believers, never lain to rest, but laid to waste

“We are gathered here today, to alleviate our many insecurities
To spit on the subdued and deprecate
Vomit eulogies upon the remains”

The Mark of Man Auckland, New Zealand

The Mark of Man make no compromises. We are angry. We are sorrowful. We want change. We express this through music we find both cathartic and fulfilling. Please listen.
