On the mark
Meanings of "On the mark"
On the right (measurement) point, exactly where one needs to be. It can be at a predetermined point where someone/something travels, goes to. To be just at the exact level, volume. "I filled the litre container to the top and stopped the water. I was on the mark."
"On your mark!" can be a preliminary command to put your foot in the proper place when a race will begin so it has a different meaning.
Ww Ww"On the mark" in lyrics
Of a deep blue dream
Seven horses seem
To be on the mark
Tip my hat to God "nice to meet you" I shout
Two names on a passport fly about
Right on the mark, feel like a jackpot
A junction marks the crossing of our fates
Discipline, discipline
Shaolin spirit
Back in the game, I'm right on the mark
Disturbed - Ten Thousand Fists
Power unrestrained
Dead on the mark
Is what we will deliver tonight
And it'll cut my wings now by your own hand..
Left!
The heart is big, and you'll hit it on the mark
Left!
Rotary Park is at peace after dark
Chief Pontiac stamped his name on the mark
A text from you saying, "I've got something to ask,"
The awful hunch I had was right on the mark...
Unsatisfied need makes you push forward
Greed, striving for its reward
Like a racer on the mark, you burn your rubber
Like a starving shark looking for its supper
Only saint Elmo’s fire merciless tears up the dark
All the rats and cowards has ran away off my sight
All the others with me, fearless, right on the mark
Eleni Vitali - In memory (Hey my carnation)
It's Death's fair
a dead man should lead the dance
the stars in the longline and the sun on the mark
And who's going to hold for you a white handkerchief in the dance
Miki Ito - 16 on the Mark (SIXTEEN)
Princess, 16 on the mark, starting to freak out a bit
Princess, 16 on the mark, because it will all be over
Princess, 16 on the mark, gee I want a boyfriend
[Verse 1]
Record sales are on the mark
'Cause that's about the time the rumors start
Brandon Flowers - Diggin' Up The Heart
Well the clerk’s got his hands up
And his mind’s on the mark
The 38 beneath the register
I will come back to you
when I find the right way
Slim and on the mark
And we will start again
Run
Run for your life
No time to look behind
Don't waste your prayers now, just go!
And if he's on the line, what did we say ? Don't leave your son on the street
I see him disguised everywhere, as a vampire, a witch, a phantom, a nazi, a child procurer in Thailand, a poison sold in a pharmacy
Go on, pass me the lavender, I need to zigzag, I'm right on the mark
Heroes in the movies, all wear mask when night comes
The me in reality relies on the mark of you wiping away the tears
Rescue yourself requires more bravery than rescuing the world
Anna Ermakova - Love Her Madly
So sing a lonely song
Of a deep blue dream
Sevеn horses seem to be on the mark
Randy Travis - A Little Left Of Center
When cupid aims his arrow
It's right on the mark
A little left of center
Mötley Crüe - Sumthin' For Nothin'
Target practice in the dark
Sumthin' for Nothin'
I'm a crack shot on the mark
