[00:03.980]Hello darkness my old friend.
[00:08.600]I've come to talk with you again.
[00:11.600]
[00:13.470]Because a vision softly creeping
[00:17.460]
[00:18.830]Left its seeds while I was sleeping.
[00:22.840]
[00:23.970]And the vision that was planted in my brain
[00:31.530]Still remains with the sound of silence
[00:39.270]
[00:41.390]In restless dreams I walk alone
[00:45.310]
[00:46.880]Narrow streets of cobble stone
[00:49.500]
[00:51.740]Beneath the hallo of a street lamp'
[00:55.430]
[00:56.560]I turned my collar to the cold and damp
[01:00.040]
[01:01.920]When my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light
[01:07.910]
[01:09.090]That split the night
[01:11.470]And touched the sound of silence
[01:17.390]
[01:19.080]And in the naked night I saw
[01:22.330]
[01:24.320]ten thousand people may be more
[01:27.440]
[01:29.620]People talking without speaking
[01:32.870]
[01:34.370]People hearing without listening
[01:37.610]
[01:39.490]People writing songs that voices never share
[01:47.040]
[01:48.280]And no one dare
[01:50.770]
[01:52.220]disturb the sound of silence
[01:56.510]
[01:58.950]"Fool" said I "you do not know
[02:01.000]
[02:03.560]Silence like a cancer grows
[02:05.820]
[02:08.560]Hear my words that I might teach you
[02:11.620]
[02:13.560]Take my arms that I might reach you
[02:16.800]
[02:19.050]But my words like silent rain-drops fell
[02:25.540]
[02:29.530]And echo-ed in the wells of silence
[02:36.270]
[02:38.130]And the people bow and prayed
[02:42.640]to the neon God they made
[02:46.070]
[02:47.620]And the sign flash out its warning
[02:51.620]
[02:52.740]In the words that it was forming
[02:56.490]
[02:57.800]And the sings said "The words of the prophers are
[03:02.170]written the subway walls and tenement halls"
[03:05.650]
[03:06.600]And whispered in the sounds of silence
[03:13.230]
[03:14.970]The Sound of Silence
[03:17.280]
