[00:00.00]The sound of silence
[00:00.10]Simon & Garfunkel
[00:00.20]
[00:03.76]Hello darkness my old friend.
[00:08.16]I've come to talk with U again.
[00:12.61]Because a vision softly creeping.
[00:17.32]Left its seeds while I was sleeping.
[00:21.91]And the vision that was planted in my brain.
[00:28.61]Still remains.
[00:32.04]Within the sound of silence
[00:36.50]
[00:37.83]In restless dreams I walk alone.
[00:42.55]Narrow streets of cobble stone.
[00:46.95]'Neath the halo of a street lamp.
[00:51.27]I turned my collar to the cold & damp.
[00:56.18]When my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light.
[01:02.76]That split the night.
[01:06.41]And touched the sound of silence.
[01:11.08]
[01:11.97]And in the naked night I saw.
[01:16.39]Ten thousand people maybe more.
[01:21.15]People talking without speaking.
[01:25.65]People hearing without listening.
[01:30.04]People writing songs that voices never share.
[01:37.76]And no one dare.
[01:40.94]Disturb the sound of silence
[01:46.94]"Fool" said I "U do not know.
[01:51.15]"Silence like a cancer grows.
[01:55.65]Hear my words that I might teach U.
[01:59.94]"Take my arms that I might reach U.
[02:04.43]But my words like silent rain-drops fell
[02:10.60]
[02:13.85]And echoed in the wells of silence
[02:20.39]
[02:21.05]And the people bow & prayed.
[02:25.42]To the neon God they made.
[02:29.73]And the sign flash out its warning.
[02:34.12]In the words that it was forming
[02:38.52]And the sign said "The words of the prophers.
[02:42.37]Are written the subway walls & tenement halls".
[02:46.26]And whispered in the sounds of silence.
[02:57.52]
