Hello darkness, my old friend,
3 X4 D0 i2 _6 D0 U% V& hIve come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
  w+ p* G6 Y& u, Z( ILeft its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
9 r5 J8 [, }5 g4 {- g9 p- k; ]Still remains
Within the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
8 F% g2 N( [' u4 ~: eI turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
A neon light
, Q% Q" z% b& uThat split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

* {( @+ ?8 D1 V, P, uAnd in the naked light I saw

People talking without speaking,
. H: v6 D0 j1 s. APeople hearing without listening,
/ @0 a+ b! M4 ]People writing songs that voices never share
And no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.

9 r  p9 q& ^' B, v0 F* \Fools said i,you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.

But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed

And the people bowed and prayed

In the words that it was forming.
And the signs said, the words of the prophets
2 y+ Y; q0 A8 @! z: sAre written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
