Hello darkness, my old friend,
. T! J* F( c5 _0 w% r* NIve come to talk with you again,
9 `8 z% |0 m4 ~1 A  iBecause a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
% f& @. z7 P" T) X& u! V5 AAnd the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
/ o( n, Y; i( x% t3 kWithin the sound of silence.
0 F& u  d' v' c) K" _
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
% \) l# X; z) }. o9 f! m2 rI turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
A neon light
That split the night
0 q& r/ Z' T7 z  xAnd touched the sound of silence.
% S# x  {+ _) a" o3 c

; y5 A$ U0 y6 m+ S) X2 g# b& _& dTen thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
; q* U9 o0 t8 J% bPeople hearing without listening,
! L( L6 \) `$ g& t" PPeople writing songs that voices never share
And no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.

Silence like a cancer grows.
+ T, {# ]6 }& H" i$ g  gHear my words that I might teach you,
% F2 p, B7 T# ^: k' t, H* S& \/ H7 ~Take my arms that I might reach you.

And echoed
In the wells of silence
0 @( Y; K6 J# `; I
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
" X4 A  u3 ~5 }, ^( J6 ZAnd the signs said, the words of the prophets
$ Y/ b  E) Z$ ]4 L. g& YAre written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
