[00:04.09]Hello darkness my old friend
[00:09.00]I've come to talk with you again
[00:14.27]Because a vision softly creeping
[00:19.33]Left its seeds while I was sleeping
[00:24.29]And the vision that was planted in my brain
[00:31.51]Still remains
[00:35.26]Within the sound of silence
[00:41.62]In restless dreams I walked alone
[00:46.71]Narrow streets of cobblestone
[00:51.19]'Neath the halo of a street lamp
[00:55.47]I turned my collar to the cold and damp
[01:00.27]When my eyes were stabbed by
[01:02.62]The flash of a neon light
[01:06.76]That split the night
[01:10.36]And touched the sound of silence
[01:16.00]And in the naked light I saw
[01:20.37]Ten thousand people maybe more
[01:24.77]People talking without speaking
[01:29.14]People hearing without listening
[01:33.45]People writing songs that voices never share
[01:40.96]And no one dared
[01:44.39]Disturb the sound of silence
[01:49.84]Fools said I you do not know
[01:54.16]Silence like a cancer grows
[01:58.63]Hear my words that I might teach you
[02:02.66]Take my arms that I might reach you
[02:07.20]But my words like silent raindrops fell
[02:16.15]And echoed in the wells of silence
[02:23.55]And the people bowed and prayed
[02:27.61]To the neon god they made
[02:31.71]And the sign flashed out its warning
[02:36.20]In the words that it was forming
[02:40.24]And the sign said
[02:41.86]The words of the prophets are
[02:43.87]Written on the subway walls
[02:47.51]And tenement halls
[02:50.36]And whispered in the sound of silence
