Hello darkness, my old friend,
Ive come to talk with you again,
- m" D& D+ c2 {4 v! h2 BBecause a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
+ w8 B. x6 r# p( q, G( O( V9 oStill remains
3 p8 b6 n+ a7 }3 X" S" n, @2 m3 V* b, S' MWithin the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
: `5 C+ y' }# {* Z' W9 x( FI turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
; h  i2 p5 k7 T2 B; nA neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.
( s4 M3 [/ A8 \
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
% b+ ?) [* ]! X8 k5 O5 ePeople hearing without listening,
' A  o6 u  d. u! q7 j& tPeople writing songs that voices never share
And no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.

Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
% i  r8 f) F: L9 G3 S& rTake my arms that I might reach you.
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed

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

Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
