Hello darkness, my old friend,
Ive come to talk with you again,
3 Q& X# ~6 a, f  P/ E+ d* c) _Because a vision softly creeping,
& o: K) @) \* d' r- k" Q+ p% mLeft its seeds while I was sleeping,
: o: U6 }2 ^3 q- P% U  iAnd the vision that was planted in my brain
1 b% p: B/ y! T+ f. |Still remains
2 M) P! y7 `( F& k9 k2 yWithin the sound of silence.

" X2 h. E/ `  NIn restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
' N: _6 A4 i0 x' V$ o5 CI turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
( U! w6 g9 ?/ @/ A) E- @: Z2 a, Q2 N" bA neon light
" A$ Z0 V, O: EThat split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
6 i: a* ^8 G1 V9 J5 XPeople hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one deared
) E0 t. M6 p& RDisturb the sound of silence.

Fools said i,you do not know
: k: h+ ]" S5 x( zSilence like a cancer grows.
+ Y; u! P2 O  a1 d( bHear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.
% ]# f* Z1 S# a( v. ^. z( Q) k) MBut my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence

* q% B, \% b" u9 uAnd the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
& I, x& k+ d8 ^3 Z% \- w* aIn the words that it was forming.

And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
