The Sound of Silence (Lyrics)
Hello darkness my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds
while I was sleeping
And the vision
that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams
I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar
to the cold and damp
When 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
Ten thousand people maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs
that voices never share
And no one dare
Disturb the sound of silence
Fools said I
You do not know silence
like a cancer grows
Hear my words
that I might teach you
Take my arms
that I might reach you
But my words like silent raindrops
fell and echoed
In the wells of silence
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 sign said
The words of the prophets
are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered
in the sound of silence
