Hello darkness, my old friend,
Ive come to talk with you again,
$ Z) N. i/ R7 a6 Q1 p9 f: yBecause 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

A neon light

In the wells of silence
/ Q& J/ U4 y8 z' [4 f
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 the signs said, the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
