Hello darkness my old friend. |
| [00:55.190] |
I've come to talk with you again. |
| [01:00.670] |
Because a vision softly creeping. |
| [01:06.380] |
Left its seeds while I was sleeping. |
| [01:11.940] |
And the vision that was planted in my brain. |
| [01:19.630] |
Still remains. |
| [01:22.410] |
Within the sound of silence |
| [01:29.960] |
In restless dreams I walk alone. |
| [01:35.540] |
Narrow streets of cobble stone. |
| [01:40.960] |
'Neath the halo of a street lamp. |
| [01:45.280] |
I turned my collar to the cold and damp. |
| [01:51.030] |
When my eyes were stabbled by the flash of |
| [01:57.030] |
a neon light. |
| [02:01.130] |
That split the night. |
| [02:03.880] |
And touched the sound of silence. |
| [02:10.160] |
And in the naked night I saw. |
| [02:16.650] |
Ten thousand people maybe more. |
| [02:22.800] |
People talking without speaking. |
| [02:27.850] |
People hearing without listening. |
| [02:32.500] |
People writing songs that voices never share. |
| [02:41.920] |
And no one dare. |
| [02:45.280] |
Disturb the sound of silence. |
| [02:52.390] |
"Fool" said I "U do not know." |
| [02:57.580] |
"Silence like a cancer grows." |
| [03:02.860] |
Hear my words that I might teach U." |
| [03:09.500] |
"Take my arms that I might reach U." |
| [03:14.670] |
But my words like silent rain-drops fell. |
| [03:26.080] |
And echoed in the wells of silence. |
| [03:38.500] |
And the people bow and prayed. |
| [03:44.780] |
To the neon God they made. |
| [03:48.970] |
And the sign flash out its warning. |
| [03:54.520] |
In the words that it was forming |
| [04:00.800] |
And the sign said "The words of the prophers. |
| [04:09.520] |
Are written the subway walls and tenement halls". |
| [04:14.710] |
And whispered in the sounds of silence. |
