Hello darkness, my old friend,
  a0 R( |/ Z  e$ T* wIve come to talk with you again,
2 U5 i, h" C+ N! m- o3 rBecause a vision softly creeping,
$ F# Z) V, q0 d% pLeft its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
2 O  K) y* J/ y/ K! P. }Within the sound of silence.

+ A  v' u! g- _In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
' Q  h6 B# w5 u0 u% v+ E5 I( I, x: lI turned my collar to the cold and damp
* _7 G) y' @' o% U* R# |When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
A neon light

And touched the sound of silence.

People talking without speaking,

Disturb the sound of silence.

Fools said i,you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
- [- T7 n- s- m0 e4 q4 B3 o# P+ vHear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.
But my words like silent raindrops fell,

8 D  n; @: b' }& i( bAnd the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.

And the signs said, the words of the prophets

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