[00:10.500]Hello darkness, my old friend,
[00:14.500]I've come to talk with you again,
[00:19.500]Because a vision softly creeping.
[00:24.900]Left its seeds while I was sleeping.
[00:29.800]And the vision that was planted in my brain
[00:36.400]Still remains
[00:42.300]Within The Sound Of Silence.
[00:48.200]In restless dreams I walked alone
[00:54.400]Narrow streets of cobblestones.
[00:59.000]'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
[01:04.900]I turned my collar to the cold and damp
[01:09.200]When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
[01:18.100]That split the night
[01:21.400]And touched The Sound Of Silence.
[01:27.700]And in the naked light I saw
[01:33.000]Ten thousand people, maybe more,
[01:37.600]People talking without speaking.
[01:43.300]People hearing without listening.
[01:47.300]People writing songs that voices never share.
[01:57.800]And no one dare
[02:00.700]Disturb The Sound Of Silence.
[02:06.700]"Fools" said I, "You do not know
[02:11.700]Silence like a cancer grows.
[02:17.500]Hear my words that I might teach you.
[02:22.500]Take my arms that I might reach you"
[02:27.500]But my words like silent raindrops fell.
[02:36.500]And echoed
[02:41.800]In the wells of silence.
[02:46.800]And the people bowed and prayed
[02:52.800]To the neon god they made.
[02:56.800]And the sign flashed out its warning.
[03:02.800]In the words that it was forming.
[03:07.800]And the signs said." The words of the prophets
[03:12.300]are written on the subway walls
[03:16.000]And tenement halls"
[03:18.900]And whisperd in The Sounds of Silence.
