Lyrics
[Verse]
The dust settles on a trail of broken flint
Where the shadow of a name leaves a jagged print
You carry the weight of a title unborn
In the valley where the fabric of the map is torn
The wind doesn’t speak it only holds its breath
Between the silver of life and the iron of death
There’s a silhouette moving by the canyon wall
Waiting for the hammer or the rain to fall
[Verse]
A traveler came with a deck of hollow cards
Trading his vision for a yard of rusted shards
He spoke of a kingdom called Ling Zambara
Where the morning is gold and the evening is sorrow
But the compass is spinning in a frantic dance
Leaving every destination to a stroke of chance
The boots on the gravel make a hollow sound
Searching for a holy site that can’t be found
[Chorus]
Oh the road is wide but the gate is thin
Let the wandering spirit find a place to begin
Ling Zambara is a bell that rings in the dark
Searching for a tinder to ignite the spark
No map can show you where the border lies
Beyond the weary clouds and the heavy skies
[Verse]
The prophets are sleeping in the shade of the wheel
Selling their secrets for a spoonful of meal
The merchant is counting the grains of the sand
Claiming he holds the keys to the promised land
But the truth is a bird that refuses to cage
Flying past the margins of the written page
If you seek the center you might lose your way
In the shifting colors of the ending day
[Chorus]
Oh the road is wide but the gate is thin
Let the wandering spirit find a place to begin
Ling Zambara is a bell that rings in the dark
Searching for a tinder to ignite the spark
No map can show you where the border lies
Beyond the weary clouds and the heavy skies
[Chorus]
Oh the road is wide but the gate is thin
Let the wandering spirit find a place to begin
Ling Zambara is a bell that rings in the dark
Searching for a tinder to ignite the spark
No map can show you where the border lies
Beyond the weary clouds and the heavy skies
