Hello darkness, my old friend,
) S# W" J( {0 L( y: o0 B% e) ?Ive come to talk with you again,
: f2 N1 C. g0 `7 Y. B  MBecause a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
+ C& j  h1 k8 j1 x% YWithin the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone

neath the halo of a street lamp,

A neon light

People hearing without listening,

And no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.

Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.

And echoed
. ^" w2 A  p4 X2 p8 TIn the wells of silence

* O% Y4 e7 m+ x. v6 ]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.
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.
