Hello darkness, my old friend,
( x) }1 F6 b, U/ f( l3 d3 U  IIve come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
# f) }; D4 C6 b1 d' \; hStill remains
9 l+ d( L" H+ s$ h. x: PWithin the sound of silence.

1 P7 I1 s1 f7 I7 l! S3 SIn restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,

And in the naked light I saw
* X; O1 c- Z' F# }5 F& GTen thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one deared
1 H- U) f/ m- Y' |& P$ oDisturb the sound of silence.

Fools said i,you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,

And echoed

To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
