Hello darkness, my old friend,
Ive come to talk with you again,
* v# `8 s1 H6 H2 l4 R  EBecause a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
4 u. u1 L4 c  {' U6 N. W0 nStill remains
Within the sound of silence.

$ j9 e  T( s  ^+ e2 h9 z6 qIn restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
( v  G. @9 m6 R; d# K8 Fneath 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
* K7 e' e/ X6 I5 l$ C  F. S5 `That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

3 U) o/ m5 ~, }8 UAnd in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
& M! J+ D( @4 \  @People talking without speaking,
& U) [0 Q/ `( o/ e9 X0 m. zPeople hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.

Silence like a cancer grows.

* Z$ e; X+ U& Z: PTake my arms that I might reach you.

And echoed
In the wells of silence

And the signs said, the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls

And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
