Breath of the Penitent

Exonerate

With your hands to the skies, form the sign that all will be absolved
Through stigmata sins, and perfect grins that beckon to us all

For only those of the flock of lambs
Can hope to grace the promised land
While the heathens will be set to burn
Forever in your hell

As utopian dreams poise, preparing to malign
Gold hearts that may have not be cast from the blood of christ
Cast off the shackles and flagellate the keeper of gates
To become one of the few who are not content to wait
For this world to rot away

Where thoughts of self void the thoughts of all
Where the call of the heavens deafens ears to the sound of now
Where a just man is piously defined
This is where the selfish over selfless shall reside

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.
