Hello darkness, my old friend,
. }2 `9 A: s" A0 q8 a5 j& \7 iIve come to talk with you again,
8 L+ l7 a" ?$ R$ D" W1 C. SBecause a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
. T9 y+ l+ Q5 ~( V" A4 \Within the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
- M& b, K2 L0 O# \5 {Narrow streets of cobblestone,
2 r+ p: M; R5 }3 G5 n( A4 aneath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
A neon light
- S2 I5 o' S1 h7 LThat split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
4 o* J: q2 D( O- D) ^& TTen thousand people, maybe more.
% j5 O3 J* C4 |; H) ?People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
9 v- w- q7 B( C' l" m& K1 P8 k* ?People writing songs that voices never share
# e; u* C4 f% C. Y$ ^+ k7 uAnd no one deared
( o) J4 s6 K; k/ PDisturb the sound of silence.

Fools said i,you do not know
3 J; Q" H% A4 y6 j5 QSilence like a cancer grows.
' `( a7 f) |5 Y3 Y- m# [Hear my words that I might teach you,
  [- C) k% Y5 M+ A! T; q0 f8 CTake my arms that I might reach you.
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
% D! ?9 A/ L2 Z7 r0 ^In the wells of silence

" ~) E7 p7 v2 P$ h% c8 yAnd the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
4 |3 D5 R* J% k) \  VIn the words that it was forming.
And the signs said, the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
/ U" r9 ^+ S% qAnd whisperd in the sounds of silence.
