Hello darkness, my old friend,
1 z/ T$ e& c) k8 a) fIve come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
: E% g4 `! g' p! n# qLeft its seeds while I was sleeping,

In restless dreams I walked alone
! T) k- }5 g+ j' ?7 J% d% \Narrow streets of cobblestone,

I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
( E- w/ ~" ]# l: W9 h6 `9 tA neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,

( O, |# s, u- @: _4 n) y/ VPeople writing songs that voices never share
And no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.

Silence like a cancer grows.

Take my arms that I might reach you.
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence

And the signs said, the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
