Hello darkness, my old friend,
+ Z1 C2 b1 P3 f. {Ive come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
! O; h  \. P& E; u) ~Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.

( d/ t  R% a% N  I) JIn restless dreams I walked alone
% C8 Z5 [% z! t" }9 g9 @$ {Narrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
A neon light

And touched the sound of silence.

People talking without speaking,

People writing songs that voices never share

Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.

And echoed

And the sign flashed out its warning,

And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
