Hello darkness, my old friend,
# P' _, l7 U  @1 T% {& H; O3 Q  aIve come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
% m3 i5 |, c1 W- ?; c5 Q3 `8 N$ eStill remains
Within the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
1 a7 Y1 u  ]. q5 E5 A/ q$ qneath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
  f- U3 H; i9 L  F, F5 ~When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
0 X' f/ l+ N: g8 RA neon light
" {" A: M9 u4 s8 J0 f0 @That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
. F5 B9 o+ Y( u# Y2 f2 ?; _: r+ TPeople talking without speaking,
7 Y+ ]8 y( e9 Z2 q6 LPeople hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
: v" E4 V5 E- m: |! XAnd no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.

3 X; Y% P7 g( E- |& \Silence like a cancer grows.
5 i  u) @5 c1 B0 NHear my words that I might teach you,
, E! T1 v% Z1 H0 ?Take my arms that I might reach you.

9 @" ?1 T5 O% dAnd echoed
: @' T1 o1 F% E6 ~) m( u/ QIn the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
' C) E  ?' m' ]6 m  a; l" ?3 C. ^And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the signs said, the words of the prophets

And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
