[00:00.750]Hello darkness my old friend[00:08.220]I've come to talk with you again[00:16.250]Because a vision softly creeping[00:22.590]Left its seeds while I was sleeping[00:28.320]And the vision that was planted in my brain[00:36.660]Still remains with the sound of silence[00:49.560]In restless dreams I walk alone[00:57.330]Narrow streets of cobble stone[01:03.980]Beneath the hallo of a street lamp[01:09.250]I turned my collar to the cold and damp[01:15.480]When my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light[01:23.720]That split the night[01:28.320]And touched the sound of silence[01:35.180]And in the naked night I saw ten thousand people may be more[01:46.990]People talking without speaking People hearing without listening[01:58.140]People writing songs that voices never share[02:07.670][02:14.220]And no one dare disturb the sound of silence[02:19.590]Fool said I you do not know[02:24.900]Silence like a cancer grows[02:30.430]Hear my words that I might teach you[02:35.900]Take my arms that I might reach you[02:41.640]But my words like silent rain-drops fell[02:53.760]And echo-ed in the wells of silence[03:03.980]And the people bow and prayed[03:11.450]to the neon God they made[03:18.510]And the sign flash out its warning[03:24.280]In the words that it was forming[03:29.650]And the sings said The words of the prophers are[03:34.510]written the subway walls and tenement halls[03:42.790]And whispered in the sounds of silence
