Simon & Garfunkel - The Sound Of Silence
|
Hello darkness, my old friend
|
|
I've come to talk with you again
|
|
Because a vision softly creeping
|
|
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
|
|
And the vision
|
|
that was planted in my brain
|
|
Still remains
|
|
Within the sound of silence
|
|
In 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 a neon light
|
|
That 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
|
|
People hearing without listening
|
|
People writing songs
|
|
That voices never share
|
|
And no one dared
|
|
Disturb the sound of silence
|
|
"Fools," said I, "You do not know
|
|
Silence like a cancer grows
|
|
Hear my words that I might teach you
|
|
Take my arms that I might reach you."
|
|
But my words
|
|
Like silent raindrops fell
|
|
And echoed in the wells of silence
|
|
And the people bowed and prayed
|
|
To the neon god they made
|
|
And the sign flashed out its warning
|
|
In the words that it was forming
|
|
And the sign said, The words of the
|
|
Prophets are written
|
|
on the subway walls
|
|
And tenement halls
|
|
And whispered in the sound
|
|
of silence
