[00:07.690] Hello darkness my old friend
[00:12.170] I've come 2 talk with U again
[00:16.510] Because a vision softly creeping
[00:21.320] Left its seeds while I was sleeping.
[00:25.790] And the vision that was planted in my brain.
[00:32.660] Still remains.
[00:36.000] Within the sound of silence
[00:41.700] In restless dreams I walk alone
[00:46.570] Narrow streets of cobble stone.
[00:51.050] 'Neath the halo of a street lamp
[00:55.490] I turned my collar 2 the cold & damp.
[01:00.210] When my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light.
[01:06.980] That split the night.
[01:10.420] And touched the sound of silence
[01:16.150] And in the naked night I saw.
[01:20.600] Ten thousand people maybe more
[01:25.310] People talking without speaking.
[01:29.760] People hearing without listening
[01:34.150] People writing songs that voices never share.
[01:41.990] And no one dare.
[01:45.310] Disturb the sound of silence
[01:49.850]
[01:50.950] "Fool" said I "U do not know.
[01:55.450] "Silence like a cancer grows.
[01:59.740] Hear my words that I might teach U
[02:04.160] "Take my arms that I might reach U
[02:08.620] But my words like silent rain-drops fell
[02:17.980] And echoed in the wells of silence
[02:25.390] And the people bow & prayed
[02:29.780] To the neon God they made
[02:34.080] And the sign flash out its warning.
[02:38.540] In the words that it was forming
[02:42.880] And the sign said "The words of the prophers
[02:46.230] Are written the subway walls & tenement halls".
[02:53.780] And whispered in the sounds of silence.
[03:02.420]
