Hello darkness, my old friend,

And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
, ^: r5 W2 r( |; YWithin the sound of silence.

I turned my collar to the cold and damp

A neon light

Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,

People writing songs that voices never share
And no one deared
