Hello darkness, my old friend,
/ t5 B& d# u3 X! jIve come to talk with you again,
( g7 \, c) a2 G! @6 E$ i0 zBecause a vision softly creeping,
% k% t+ ^# X2 q4 V0 W: i8 kLeft its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
4 ]; z2 C" R% ^0 dWithin the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
4 P0 _$ W3 I! `6 F) |I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
2 K/ o' j- J1 p" s$ [( ?A neon light
That split the night

' j; G2 z- s1 Z5 t7 @$ Z; RPeople talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,

And no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.
