Ive 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
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
; d: g7 }0 I, R6 c- E( o/ Wneath the halo of a street lamp,
  ?9 S4 K& K1 t6 |% Q  T' y0 I) ?I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
9 @3 e; }4 U/ K! UA neon light
That split the night
* G9 @& a1 p8 ]/ ~$ B; B3 ]/ m' FAnd touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
. s2 s3 A6 |, s: E9 lPeople talking without speaking,
1 K2 @$ b# @4 R* b. mPeople hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
- n, ]+ X* R; |+ A, d  AAnd no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.

Fools said i,you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
- U7 i$ H' \/ ~' i# THear my words that I might teach you,
- N. T2 h; p: L/ ^) UTake my arms that I might reach you.
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
: ^* Q* Z! T: J6 LAnd echoed
* P; e! z; H7 F9 F  tIn the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
