Mark of the Man

[Verse 1]
When you look across the water
You cannot see
The fire’s climbing higher
Than the trees
Deaf to their voices
And blind to their reach
This is the mark of the man
Not the beast

[Verse 2]
There’s grace that we speak of
In prayer and in love
But when strangers reach out to us
We dare not touch
Two different targets
Both on their knees
This is the mark of the man
Not the beast

[Verse 3]
Out of sight out of mind
Every man for himself
Me in my bubble
Let ‘em all go to hell

[Verse 4]
So blame, blame it on voices
Blame it on the laws
Politician’s choices
Hell, blame it on god
Gunpowder’s poison
And the spread of disease
This is the mark of the man
Not the beast
Yeah this is the mark of the man
Not the beast
Yeah this is the mark of the man
Not the beast
