Hello darkness my old friend |
| [00:12.330] |
I've come to talk with you again |
| [00:17.629] |
Because a vision softly creeping |
| [00:22.810] |
Left its seeds while I was sleeping |
| [00:28.100] |
And the vision that was planted |
| [00:31.420] |
In my brain still remains |
| [00:36.850] |
Within the sound of silence |
| [00:44.090] |
In restless dreams I walked along |
| [00:48.840] |
Narrow streets of cobble stone |
| [00:53.260] |
Beneath the halo of a street lamp |
| [00:58.010] |
I turned my collar to the cold and damp |
| [01:02.950] |
When my eyes were stabbed |
| [01:05.370] |
By the flash of a neon light |
| [01:10.110] |
That split the light |
| [01:13.610] |
And touched the sound of silence |
| [01:19.680] |
And in the naked light I saw |
| [01:23.730] |
Ten thousand people maybe more |
| [01:28.660] |
People talking without speaking |
| [01:33.400] |
People hearing without listening |
| [01:37.710] |
People writing songs that voices never share |
| [01:45.259] |
And no one dare |
| [01:48.690] |
Disturb the sound of silence |
| [01:55.100] |
"Fool" said I,"You do not know |
| [01:58.490] |
Silence like a cancer grows |
| [02:03.120] |
Hear my words that I might teach you |
| [02:07.720] |
Take my arms that I might reach you" |
| [02:12.100] |
But my words like silent raindrops fell |
| [02:18.110] |
And echoed in the walls of silence |
| [02:27.350] |
And the people bowed and prayed |
| [02:31.930] |
To the neon god they made |
