Hello darkness, my old friend,
Ive come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
' m' P7 b* L- z+ e% ~) u3 rLeft its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.

Narrow streets of cobblestone,
' O+ |; \4 D1 o0 O+ Q5 Yneath 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.

Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.

And echoed

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,

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