Hello darkness, my old friend,
/ y$ N( y) l2 Q( b7 KIve come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
9 ]8 I( W5 b/ R  T% [  DLeft its seeds while I was sleeping,
- x; w- Y. a7 ~- m4 |9 cAnd the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
; V0 q& C4 P5 k' l% G* r  }7 y% ~8 ~Within the sound of silence.

1 y2 J: E: i8 W! Y4 o# OIn restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
% V8 B& A, w5 D5 U  _% G) ~A neon light
, X3 U4 S" @$ d: g% k3 z$ k) p/ `That split the night
/ I" F6 O8 z* r) aAnd touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
2 R+ r- `9 ]+ X8 RPeople talking without speaking,
+ d' F6 j7 H: CPeople hearing without listening,
$ u5 h  W' h* f2 X# A! T5 kPeople writing songs that voices never share
And no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.

Fools said i,you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
; [' S7 h; d1 Q$ R* D7 iHear my words that I might teach you,
: e: {; m4 n5 p9 [+ K) aTake my arms that I might reach you.
9 y# R* u1 C6 kBut my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence
& q( y- [, V* H% S
$ g: o0 S2 n9 U: ^; DAnd the people bowed and prayed
/ h: s" L. w, H, p8 {# m' t! e: P% y8 VTo the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
% {* k$ |4 i' N# }1 ]3 S- R0 A5 KIn the words that it was forming.
4 T( S; n5 W* ZAnd the signs said, the words of the prophets
4 j+ m2 ]" e' R5 D- MAre written on the subway walls

And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
