The Sound of Silence

Hello darkness my old friend

  • 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 shared
  • And no one dared 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
