hello darkness my old friend. |
| [00:30.420] |
i've come to talk with you again. |
| [00:37.800] |
because a vision softly creeping. |
| [00:43.610] |
left its seeds while i was sleeping. |
| [00:49.110] |
and the vision that was planted in my brain. |
| [00:59.750] |
still remains. |
| [01:02.190] |
within the sound of silence ! |
| [01:09.250] |
in restless dreams i walk along. |
| [01:16.810] |
narrow streets of cobble stone |
| [01:20.310] |
'neath the halo of a street lamp. |
| [01:26.500] |
i turned my collar to the cold damp. |
| [01:33.380] |
when my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light |
| [01:41.000] |
that split the night.. |
| [01:46.750] |
and touched the sound of silence. |
| [02:05.270] |
and in the naked light i saw. |
| [02:10.640] |
ten thousand people, maybe more. |
| [02:17.390] |
people talking without speaking. |
| [02:21.770] |
people hearing without listening. |
| [02:28.370] |
people writing songs that voices never share. |
| [02:36.000] |
and no one dare. |
| [02:42.430] |
disturb the sound of silence. |
| [02:54.430] |
"fool" said i "you do not know. |
| [03:00.560] |
"silence like a cancer grows.. |
| [03:05.810] |
"hear my words that i might teach you. |
| [03:11.000] |
"take my arms that i might reach you. |
| [03:18.620] |
but my words like silent rain-drops fell. |
| [03:26.120] |
and echoed in the wells of silence. |
| [03:38.310] |
and the people bowed and prayed. |
| [03:44.750] |
to the neon god they made. |
| [03:49.870] |
and the sign flashed out its warning. |
| [03:55.370] |
in the words that it was forming. |
| [04:00.620] |
and the sign said "the words of the prophets. |
| [04:08.850] |
are written on the subway walls tenement halls". |
| [04:13.410] |
and whispered in the sounds of silence. in the sounds of silence. in the sounds of silence. |
