Sounds of Silence (From "The Graduate")
Hello darkness
- Hello darkness
- My old friend
- I've come to talk with you again
- Because a vision softly creeping
- Left it's 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
- Beneath the halo of a 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 hazy light I saw
- Ten thousand people maybe more
- People talking without speaking
- People hearing without hearing
- People writing songs that voices never share
- No one dared
- Disturb the sound of silence
- Fools said that I did 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
- Echoed
- The sound of silence
- And the people kneeled and prayed
- To the neon god they made
- And the sign shout out warning
- Hear the words that it was forming
- And the sign said
- The words of the prophets are
- Written on the subway walls
- Tenement halls
- Whispered the sounds of silence
Let's listen to my solo!
