Hello darkness, my old friend,
* ^) q  E% N# c1 P: W" fIve come to talk with you again,
5 f5 W8 G) K4 O2 k9 P$ r8 o* gBecause a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
4 f+ h4 _9 s4 T" r% xStill remains
0 M! w# u- v# kWithin the sound of silence.

$ u, k) `( h" k4 ZIn restless dreams I walked alone
. e" N! u; W8 C& U% |  \Narrow streets of cobblestone,
+ o$ Q( W! D; ~- Z: s) y' Mneath 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
2 d7 b3 v" _. Z- YThat split the night
5 ?4 L6 I) Z) q7 Y0 eAnd touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
# Q, H1 R7 q+ n# H5 _People writing songs that voices never share
( Z% G. G6 k! x7 G% J8 tAnd no one deared
- n& E  D+ g" s7 Y8 R: ZDisturb the sound of silence.

Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.
& H4 p! @4 d" b% f7 @But my words like silent raindrops fell,
' z& R+ V9 q, v) U( T, OAnd echoed
In the wells of silence

To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,

And tenement halls.
