Hello darkness, my old friend,
Ive come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
% H; Y9 x0 P3 @. b( I4 zLeft its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
) b: L& P  t9 JStill remains
/ C$ J4 n6 X0 jWithin the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
' M: i1 U% h( d8 k( m% eNarrow streets of cobblestone,
- B; |; l5 M) M* k+ P7 B( U4 wneath the halo of a street lamp,
* ^& Q: y5 w' nI turned my collar to the cold and damp
1 e$ N0 s8 F/ l  g+ Q0 wWhen my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
A neon light
# b# W6 n8 }8 ?0 l1 X4 U" zThat split the night
- e2 C& w5 g. XAnd touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
/ Z4 Q" B* c+ xTen thousand people, maybe more.
7 ~" M$ Y6 x' J1 B% E7 \% Z. {7 @People talking without speaking,
0 R# z9 ]6 x1 ZPeople hearing without listening,
, a& H9 R3 U& @+ t5 Q6 j+ nPeople writing songs that voices never share
And no one deared
  Q' q) G, L; d/ @& h9 J2 SDisturb the sound of silence.

0 P. T  d1 b& P& w- \+ ]Fools said i,you do not know
& \- X9 F' l, u3 f3 q5 ~+ {" RSilence like a cancer grows.
# B+ n9 Y( a0 g/ c% k# EHear my words that I might teach you,

But my words like silent raindrops fell,
) I6 H, U& a+ L  ^  Y2 |And echoed
In the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
. g: t& M6 J. S$ C! n/ NTo the neon God they made.
8 T! {% u3 K3 l- @/ _% hAnd the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
7 L6 A- E! M/ [( Z/ Y, H* V# yAnd the signs said, the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
