Hello darkness my old friend. |
| [00:07.190] |
I've come 2 talk with U again. |
| [00:11.670] |
Because a vision softly creeping. |
| [00:15.680] |
Left its seeds while I was sleeping. |
| [00:21.240] |
And the vision that was planted in my brain. |
| [00:27.530] |
Still remains. |
| [00:31.710] |
Within the sound of silence |
| [00:37.260] |
In restless dreams I walk alone. |
| [00:41.840] |
Narrow streets of cobble stone. |
| [00:46.260] |
'Neath the halo of a street lamp. |
| [00:50.580] |
I turned my collar 2 the cold & damp. |
| [00:55.630] |
When my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light. |
| [01:02.730] |
That split the night. |
| [01:06.480] |
And touched the sound of silence. |
| [01:11.760] |
And in the naked night I saw. |
| [01:16.250] |
Ten thousand people maybe more. |
| [01:21.400] |
People talking without speaking. |
| [01:25.450] |
People hearing without listening. |
| [01:30.100] |
People writing songs that voices never share. |
| [01:38.120] |
And no one dare. |
| [01:41.780] |
Disturb the sound of silence. |
| [01:47.890] |
"Fool" said I "U do not know." |
| [01:52.380] |
"Silence like a cancer grows." |
| [01:56.660] |
Hear my words that I might teach U." |
| [02:01.300] |
"Take my arms that I might reach U." |
| [02:05.470] |
But my words like silent rain-drops fell. |
| [02:15.480] |
And echoed in the wells of silence. |
| [02:23.500] |
And the people bow & prayed. |
| [02:27.780] |
To the neon God they made. |
| [02:31.970] |
And the sign flash out its warning. |
| [02:36.520] |
In the words that it was forming |
| [02:40.800] |
And the sign said "The words of the prophers. |
| [02:44.520] |
Are written the subway walls & tenement halls". |
| [02:51.710] |
And whispered in the sounds of silence. |
