[00:21.697]Hello darkness my old friend.
[00:25.698]I've come to talk with you again.
[00:30.700]Because a vision softly creeping
[00:35.699]Left its seeds while I was sleeping.
[00:39.699]And the vision that was planted in my brain
[00:46.699]Still remains with the sound of silence
[00:55.698]In restless dreams I walk alone
[01:00.698]Narrow streets of cobble stone
[01:04.698]Beneath the hallo of a street lamp,
[01:09.698]I turned my collar to the cold and damp
[01:13.698]When my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light
[01:21.898]That split the night
[01:24.898]And touched the sound of silence
[01:30.898]And in the naked night I saw ten thousand people may be more
[01:39.898]People talking without speaking hearing without listening
[01:48.898]People writing songs that voices never share
[01:56.898]And no one dare disturb the sound of silence
[02:05.897]"Fool" said I "you do not know
[02:09.896]Silence like a cancer grows
[02:14.897]Hear my words that I might teach you
[02:18.897]Take my arms that I might reach you
[02:23.897]But my words like silent rain-drops fell
[02:32.898]And echo-ed in the wells of silence
[02:39.898]And the people bow and prayed
[02:44.898]to the neon God they made
[02:48.898]And the sign flash out its warning
[02:52.898]In the words that it was forming
[02:57.898]And the sings said "The words of the prophers are
[03:01.898]written the subway walls and tenement halls"
[03:07.898]And whispered in the sounds of silence
