Hello darkness my old friend |
| [00:07.700] |
I've come to talk with you again |
| [00:11.980] |
Because a vision softly creeping |
| [00:16.720] |
Left its seeds while I was sleeping |
| [00:21.210] |
And the vision that was planted in my brain |
| [00:28.020] |
Still remains with the sound of silence |
| [00:37.900] |
In restless dreams I walk alone |
| [00:41.770] |
Narrow streets of cobble stone |
| [00:46.280] |
Beneath the hallo of a street lamp |
| [00:50.800] |
I turned my collar to the cold and damp |
| [00:55.880] |
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light |
| [01:02.620] |
That split the night |
| [01:06.060] |
And touched the sound of silence |
| [01:11.330] |
And in the naked night I saw ten thousand people may be more |
| [01:20.389] |
People talking without speaking people hearing without listening |
| [01:29.690] |
People writing songs that voices never share |
| [01:37.480] |
no one dare disturb the sound of silence |
| [01:45.859] |
"Fool" said I "you do not know“ |
| [01:51.060] |
Silence like a cancer grows |
| [01:54.780] |
Hear my words that I might teach you |
| [01:59.690] |
Take my arms that I might reach you.But my words like silent rain-drops fell" |
| [02:13.360] |
And echoed in the wells of silence |
| [02:21.890] |
And the people bow and pray |
| [02:25.929] |
to the neon God they made |
| [02:29.290] |
And the sign flash out its warning |
| [02:33.660] |
In the words that it was forming |
| [02:38.010] |
And the sings said "The words of the prophers are.written the subway walls and tenement halls |
| [02:49.400] |
And whispered in the sounds of silence |
