Hello darkness my old friend. |
| [00:08.600] |
I've come to talk with you again. |
| [00:11.600] |
|
| [00:13.470] |
Because a vision softly creeping |
| [00:17.460] |
|
| [00:18.830] |
Left its seeds while I was sleeping. |
| [00:22.840] |
|
| [00:23.970] |
And the vision that was planted in my brain |
| [00:31.530] |
Still remains with the sound of silence |
| [00:39.270] |
|
| [00:41.390] |
In restless dreams I walk alone |
| [00:45.310] |
|
| [00:46.880] |
Narrow streets of cobble stone |
| [00:49.500] |
|
| [00:51.740] |
Beneath the hallo of a street lamp' |
| [00:55.430] |
|
| [00:56.560] |
I turned my collar to the cold and damp |
| [01:00.040] |
|
| [01:01.920] |
When my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light |
| [01:07.910] |
|
| [01:09.090] |
That split the night |
| [01:11.470] |
And touched the sound of silence |
| [01:17.390] |
|
| [01:19.080] |
And in the naked night I saw |
| [01:22.330] |
|
| [01:24.320] |
ten thousand people may be more |
| [01:27.440] |
|
| [01:29.620] |
People talking without speaking |
| [01:32.870] |
|
| [01:34.370] |
People hearing without listening |
| [01:37.610] |
|
| [01:39.490] |
People writing songs that voices never share |
| [01:47.040] |
|
| [01:48.280] |
And no one dare |
| [01:50.770] |
|
| [01:52.220] |
disturb the sound of silence |
| [01:56.510] |
|
| [01:58.950] |
"Fool" said I "you do not know |
| [02:01.000] |
|
| [02:03.560] |
Silence like a cancer grows |
| [02:05.820] |
|
| [02:08.560] |
Hear my words that I might teach you |
| [02:11.620] |
|
| [02:13.560] |
Take my arms that I might reach you |
| [02:16.800] |
|
| [02:19.050] |
But my words like silent rain-drops fell |
| [02:25.540] |
|
| [02:29.530] |
And echo-ed in the wells of silence |
| [02:36.270] |
|
| [02:38.130] |
And the people bow and prayed |
| [02:42.640] |
to the neon God they made |
| [02:46.070] |
|
| [02:47.620] |
And the sign flash out its warning |
| [02:51.620] |
|
| [02:52.740] |
In the words that it was forming |
| [02:56.490] |
|
| [02:57.800] |
And the sings said "The words of the prophers are |
| [03:02.170] |
written the subway walls and tenement halls" |
| [03:05.650] |
|
| [03:06.600] |
And whispered in the sounds of silence |
| [03:13.230] |
|
| [03:14.970] |
The Sound of Silence |
| [03:17.280] |
|
