| [00:03.83] | hello darkness my old friend. |
| [00:08.32] | i've come to talk with you again. |
| [00:10.37] | |
| [00:12.70] | because a vision softly creeping. |
| [00:14.81] | |
| [00:17.51] | left its seeds while i was sleeping. |
| [00:19.87] | |
| [00:22.01] | and the vision that was planted in my brain. |
| [00:26.94] | |
| [00:28.65] | still remains. |
| [00:29.70] | |
| [00:32.09] | within the sound of silence ! |
| [00:36.20] | |
| [00:38.15] | in restless dreams i walk along. |
| [00:39.89] | |
| [00:42.71] | narrow streets of cobble stone |
| [00:44.26] | |
| [00:47.21] | 'neath the halo of a street lamp. |
| [00:49.70] | |
| [00:51.40] | i turned my collar to the cold damp. |
| [00:53.45] | |
| [00:56.28] | when my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light |
| [01:01.08] | |
| [01:02.90] | that split the night.. |
| [01:04.20] | |
| [01:06.65] | and touched the sound of silence. |
| [01:08.45] | |
| [01:12.17] | and in the naked light i saw. |
| [01:14.47] | |
| [01:16.54] | ten thousand people, maybe more. |
| [01:18.59] | |
| [01:21.29] | people talking without speaking. |
| [01:22.97] | |
| [01:25.67] | people hearing without listening. |
| [01:27.09] | |
| [01:30.27] | people writing songs that voices never share. |
| [01:35.95] | |
| [01:37.90] | and no one dare. |
| [01:39.20] | |
| [01:41.33] | disturb the sound of silence. |
| [01:43.76] | |
| [01:47.33] | "fool" said i "you do not know. |
| [01:49.38] | |
| [01:51.46] | "silence like a cancer grows.. |
| [01:53.26] | |
| [01:55.71] | "hear my words that i might teach you. |
| [01:58.95] | |
| [01:59.90] | "take my arms that i might reach you. |
| [02:02.82] | |
| [02:04.52] | but my words like silent rain-drops fell. |
| [02:09.20] | |
| [02:14.02] | and echoed in the wells of silence. |
| [02:18.88] | |
| [02:21.21] | and the people bowed and prayed. |
| [02:23.01] | |
| [02:25.65] | to the neon god they made. |
| [02:27.38] | |
| [02:29.77] | and the sign flashed out its warning. |
| [02:31.82] | |
| [02:34.27] | in the words that it was forming. |
| [02:36.07] | |
| [02:38.52] | and the sign said "the words of the prophets. |
| [02:41.57] | |
| [02:42.75] | are written on the subway walls tenement halls". |
| [02:46.93] | |
| [02:49.31] | and whispered in the sounds of silence. |
