Hello darkness my old friend |
| [00:08.11] |
I've come to talk with you again |
| [00:13.01] |
Because a vision softly creeping |
| [00:18.27] |
Left it's seeds while I was sleeping |
| [00:23.47] |
And the vision that was planted |
| [00:27.79] |
In my brain still remains |
| [00:33.59] |
Within the sound of silence |
| [00:41.14] |
In restless dreams I walked along |
| [00:45.86] |
Narrow streets of cobble stone |
| [00:51.15] |
Beneath the halo of a street lamp |
| [00:56.13] |
I turned my collar to the cold and damp |
| [01:01.39] |
When my eyes were stabbed |
| [01:04.00] |
By the flash of a neon light |
| [01:08.60] |
That split the light |
| [01:11.58] |
And touched the sound of silence |
| [01:19.24] |
And in the naked light I saw |
| [01:24.15] |
Ten thousand people maybe more |
| [01:29.01] |
People talking without speaking |
| [01:34.06] |
People hearing without listening |
| [01:39.18] |
People writing songs that voices never share |
| [01:47.38] |
And no one dare |
| [01:51.33] |
Disturb the sound of silence |
| [01:58.33] |
Fool said I you do not know |
| [02:03.15] |
Silence like a cancer grows |
| [02:08.22] |
Hear my words that I might teach you |
| [02:13.02] |
Take my arms that I might reach you |
| [02:18.51] |
But my words like silent raindrops fell |
| [02:29.12] |
And echoed in the wells of silence |
| [02:37.53] |
And the people bowed and prayed |
| [02:42.32] |
To the neon God they made |
| [02:47.57] |
And the sign flashed out it's warning |
| [02:52.39] |
In the words that it was forming |
| [02:57.66] |
And the signs said, 'The words of the prophets |
| [03:01.20] |
Are written on the subway walls and tenement halls |
| [03:09.72] |
And whispered in the sounds of silence |
| [03:20.61] |
|
