Hello darkness, my old friend,
- @, J: v. f: i7 Q; T& JIve 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
) j( z4 [: C5 K3 L" oStill remains
  g- f- H6 [$ Z- y7 b/ J# E' z2 XWithin the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
9 S  F" g1 h) n+ X; H& b! MNarrow streets of cobblestone,
! e% o; `% d* m% G" w: Mneath the halo of a street lamp,
. l, y! \& H& RI turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of

1 V# O9 G4 d. c1 f% Q* _- S8 RThat split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

2 Z8 r3 K" M( Y1 p6 ~7 ]; y+ A8 EAnd in the naked light I saw
  D0 k! B" D, }& e0 c  r2 Y& y1 ETen thousand people, maybe more.
7 u& W( r7 G) u* a3 FPeople talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one deared

Fools said i,you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.
% Y& Z* D. d9 k7 g6 @. w$ e( C1 B* N+ |But my words like silent raindrops fell,

And the people bowed and prayed

And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.

Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
