Hello darkness, my old friend,
Ive come to talk with you again,
  ^1 Z+ f4 e& g) a/ kBecause a vision softly creeping,
3 q3 Z- b! w# }& L" tLeft its seeds while I was sleeping,
" f; H/ n- S( K' K7 GAnd the vision that was planted in my brain

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
$ s6 B9 g; a1 R4 xneath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
+ a6 {" \/ k5 V& V' j* hWhen my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
A neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw

People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share

Disturb the sound of silence.

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