[00:03.83] hello darkness my old friend.
[00:08.32] i've come to talk with you again.
[00:10.37]
[00:12.70] because a vision softly creeping.
[00:14.81]
[00:17.51] left its seeds while i was sleeping.
[00:19.87]
[00:22.01] and the vision that was planted in my brain.
[00:26.94]
[00:28.65] still remains.
[00:29.70]
[00:32.09] within the sound of silence !
[00:36.20]
[00:38.15] in restless dreams i walk along.
[00:39.89]
[00:42.71] narrow streets of cobble stone
[00:44.26]
[00:47.21] 'neath the halo of a street lamp.
[00:49.70]
[00:51.40] i turned my collar to the cold damp.
[00:53.45]
[00:56.28] when my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light
[01:01.08]
[01:02.90] that split the night..
[01:04.20]
[01:06.65] and touched the sound of silence.
[01:08.45]
[01:12.17] and in the naked light i saw.
[01:14.47]
[01:16.54] ten thousand people, maybe more.
[01:18.59]
[01:21.29] people talking without speaking.
[01:22.97]
[01:25.67] people hearing without listening.
[01:27.09]
[01:30.27] people writing songs that voices never share.
[01:35.95]
[01:37.90] and no one dare.
[01:39.20]
[01:41.33] disturb the sound of silence.
[01:43.76]
[01:47.33] "fool" said i "you do not know.
[01:49.38]
[01:51.46] "silence like a cancer grows..
[01:53.26]
[01:55.71] "hear my words that i might teach you.
[01:58.95]
[01:59.90] "take my arms that i might reach you.
[02:02.82]
[02:04.52] but my words like silent rain-drops fell.
[02:09.20]
[02:14.02] and echoed in the wells of silence.
[02:18.88]
[02:21.21] and the people bowed and prayed.
[02:23.01]
[02:25.65] to the neon god they made.
[02:27.38]
[02:29.77] and the sign flashed out its warning.
[02:31.82]
[02:34.27] in the words that it was forming.
[02:36.07]
[02:38.52] and the sign said "the words of the prophets.
[02:41.57]
[02:42.75] are written on the subway walls tenement halls".
[02:46.93]
[02:49.31] and whispered in the sounds of silence.
