| [00:03.62] | hello darkness my old friend. |
| [00:07.84] | i've come to talk with you again. |
| [00:12.34] | because a vision softly creeping |
| [00:17.23] | left its seeds while i was sleeping. |
| [00:21.93] | and the vision that was planted in my brain |
| [00:29.13] | still remains with the sound of silence |
| [00:38.84] | in restless dreams i walk alone |
| [00:43.66] | narrow streets of cobble stone |
| [00:48.14] | beneath the hallo of a street lamp, |
| [00:52.61] | i turned my collar to the cold and damp |
| [00:57.49] | when my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light |
| [01:04.72] | that split the night |
| [01:07.95] | and touched the sound of silence |
| [01:14.94] | and in the naked night i saw |
| [01:18.43] | ten thousand people may be more |
| [01:23.49] | people talking without speaking |
| [01:28.11] | people hearing without listening |
| [01:32.88] | people writing songs that voices never share |
| [01:40.99] | and no one dare |
| [01:44.53] | disturb the sound of silence |
| [01:51.21] | "fool" said i "you do not know |
| [01:55.13] | silence like a cancer grows |
| [01:59.88] | hear my words that i might teach you |
| [02:04.43] | take my arms that i might reach you |
| [02:09.23] | but my words like silent rain-drops fell |
| [02:19.55] | and echo-ed in the wells of silence |
| [02:43.03] | |
| [03:02.70] | and the people bow and prayed |
| [03:07.02] | to the neon god they made |
| [03:11.73] | and the sign flash out its warning |
| [03:16.41] | in the words that it was forming |
| [03:21.03] | and the sings said "the words of the prophets are |
| [03:25.31] | written the subway walls and tenement halls" |
| [03:29.04] | and whispered in the sounds of silence |
