1 v+ J5 y+ x% V  HHello darkness, my old friend,
* [' a: s7 C, b% o0 z% h( _+ XIve come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
7 `& }) o4 m' q8 p; _0 ]" _Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
; n' S. d# `8 U9 \: vAnd the vision that was planted in my brain
: P; T& T2 o, ^/ a7 D9 UStill remains
6 V5 h# i! @, @# ^. IWithin the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
: L/ j5 y9 H9 gNarrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
* b9 s) _2 c- ^' ~0 p6 ]  eWhen my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
8 [9 P4 R" Z/ z* V7 AA neon light
That split the night
* F% h, b/ f$ \And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
$ a0 S4 C% X* H5 T+ pTen thousand people, maybe more.
: g6 v7 Y. B( Q  |People talking without speaking,
: w& E' w6 ?( nPeople hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
0 o, M: F; T; WAnd no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.
- _2 P* e# t: H- C6 O8 M
Fools said i,you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
, Z  W! e# p- YHear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.
% Q. P- ?5 N) q- t" qBut my words like silent raindrops fell,
3 }* E8 z5 U- |4 J4 d" hAnd echoed
In the wells of silence
2 a8 ^5 s! q0 E9 X; D6 u5 y
( Z7 @5 G" M0 ]1 t$ wAnd the people bowed and prayed
7 l6 g/ I7 \3 k! {( y3 Y! LTo the neon God they made.
( G2 \' N. q/ }And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
! j+ c/ \! a) Y  b8 x# ZAnd the signs said, the words of the prophets
+ m, ^8 w8 R# E: _' s( w, V3 E) SAre written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
