9 |/ Y" d( ~3 P% b; X& nHello darkness, my old friend,
( R* D5 g1 M! s9 }9 GIve come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
( |8 N# a' m! r. l( Z: X- O2 v8 KLeft its seeds while I was sleeping,
8 c2 j: n8 ~& F5 j2 x2 R! i2 x2 rAnd the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
9 M& e8 P' w: z5 H# n8 gWithin the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
" D$ H- d1 T1 {6 }, f. t* F9 iNarrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
4 K: ?; @1 S/ l; Y- XI turned my collar to the cold and damp
/ e& i8 P, G# k! g, g" B+ p4 oWhen my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
A neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.
* s- z( B0 ^# x) `0 o: M
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
3 ?7 j( r( e, tPeople writing songs that voices never share
- H, o) o* q% V( U% XAnd no one deared

Fools said i,you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
6 ~$ a1 |8 f# THear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
- m6 r: Q' m# `In the wells of silence

And the signs said, the words of the prophets

And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
