[00:13.98]Hello darkness, my old friend
[00:30.05]I’ve come to talk with you again
[00:36.55]Because a vision softly creeping
[00:41.37]Left its seeds while I was sleeping
[00:47.50]And the vision that was planted in my brain
[00:56.99]Still remains
[01:00.49]Within the sound of silence
[01:10.43]In restless dreams I walked alone
[01:14.62]Narrow streets of cobblestone
[01:20.41]Neath the halo of a street lamp
[01:26.03]I turned my collar to the cold and damp
[01:31.28]When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
[01:41.96]That split the night
[01:44.73]And touched the sound of silence.
[01:59.21]
[02:06.00]And in the naked light I saw
[02:11.29]Ten thousand people maybe more
[02:14.89]People talking without speaking
[02:21.23]People hearing without listening
[02:27.00]People writing songs that voices never share
[02:36.92]And no one deared
[02:40.62]Disturb the sound of silence
[02:51.13]“Fools” said I "You do not know"
[02:59.18]Silence like a cancer grows
[03:05.07]Hear my words that I might teach you
[03:10.46]Take my arms that I might reach you
[03:16.40]But my words like silent raindrops fell
[03:26.80]And echoed
[03:29.87]In the wells of silence
[03:40.15]And the people bowed and prayed
[03:43.78]To the neon god they made
[03:49.10]And the sign flashed out its warning
[03:55.05]In the words that it was forming
[04:00.80]And the signs said, The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
[04:10.62]And tenement halls
[04:14.36]And whisper’d in the sounds of silence
[04:19.90]In the sounds of silence~~~
