Hello darkness, my old friend,
* k' G  c( G0 mIve come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
5 j- i' A8 r9 y/ o# f. g. _  yAnd the vision that was planted in my brain
5 s, W& Q4 o; E5 l% GStill remains
Within the sound of silence.

2 k4 C7 q* s( f! R" e* W( K+ EIn restless dreams I walked alone
1 ~, R) x& K7 f" ]Narrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
/ G2 P% k. |9 v0 PWhen my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
A neon light
That split the night

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.

And no one deared

Silence like a cancer grows.

Take my arms that I might reach you.
2 e2 C- ^4 G$ K, ^But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.

And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
