Hello darkness, my old friend,
8 D8 f9 |$ b* j7 y6 G1 PIve come to talk with you again,

Left its seeds while I was sleeping,

Still remains

8 @3 _3 c* G1 w4 a: M6 t. s/ w, HIn restless dreams I walked alone
1 G( e: |8 V- e* Y: d5 kNarrow streets of cobblestone,
/ c: w$ \- P4 I6 H7 N7 ~  Hneath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of

That split the night

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.

Fools said i,you do not know
. L6 @( T2 T- Y1 A- G+ dSilence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.

To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
7 G* a3 Z$ N9 k$ Q. j4 L# UAnd the signs said, the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
