Hello darkness, my old friend |
| [00:13.16] |
I've come to talk with you again |
| [00:17.94] |
Because a vision softly creeping |
| [00:23.19] |
Left its seeds while I was sleeping |
| [00:28.07] |
And the vision that was planted in my brain |
| [00:35.43] |
Still remains |
| [00:39.09] |
Within the sound of silence |
| [00:45.14] |
In restless dreams I walked alone |
| [00:50.38] |
Narrow streets of cobble stone |
| [00:55.36] |
'Neath the halo of a street lamp |
| [01:00.19] |
I turned my collar to the cold and damp |
| [01:05.48] |
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light |
| [01:12.58] |
That split the night |
| [01:16.35] |
And touched the sound of silence |
| [01:22.40] |
And in the naked light I saw |
| [01:27.18] |
Ten thousand people, maybe more |
| [01:32.40] |
People talking without speaking |
| [01:37.29] |
People hearing without listening |
| [01:42.26] |
People writing songs that voices never share |
| [01:49.33] |
And no one dared |
| [01:53.30] |
Disturb the sound of silence |
| [01:59.45] |
"Fools" said I, "You do not know |
| [02:04.32] |
Silence like a cancer grows |
| [02:09.25] |
Hear my words that I might teach you |
| [02:14.24] |
Take my arms that I might reach you" |
| [02:19.07] |
But my words like silent raindrops fell |
| [02:29.54] |
And echoed in the wells of silence |
| [02:37.08] |
And the people bowed and prayed |
| [02:41.72] |
To the neon god they made |
| [02:46.68] |
And the sign flashed its warning |
| [02:51.56] |
In the words that it was forming |
| [02:56.49] |
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets |
| [03:00.97] |
Are written on the subway walls |
| [03:05.08] |
And tenement halls |
| [03:08.60] |
Whispered in the sounds of silence" |
| [03:52.30] |
And in the naked light I saw |
| [03:56.62] |
Ten thousand people, maybe more |
| [04:02.12] |
People talking without speaking |
| [04:06.98] |
People hearing without listening |
| [04:11.97] |
People writing songs that voices never share |
| [04:19.35] |
And no one dared |
| [04:22.96] |
Disturb the sound of silence |
