Definitions

While the vermin and victims claw at the rubble
The famine of empathy rewards its vultures well
As they feast upon the canaries
Long dead in the darkest filth of the coal mines

These bones are the mark of man
The black eyes of the vulture are the mark of man
And it weighs upon my heart like a tonne of coal
Combustible and dead

The stillness reveals that there is nothing left beneath
As the darkest filth flows through their spidery veins
The decay in their hearts will return these bones to the blackness of the earth

These bones are the mark of man
The black eyes of the vulture are the mark of man
And it weighs upon my heart like a tonne of coal
Combustible and dead

about

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.
