Hello darkness, my old f riend

I've come to talk with you ag ain

Because a vision softly creepi ng

Left its seeds while I w as sleep ing

And the vision that was planted in my brain

Still r emains

Within the sound of silence

I N.C. n restless dreams I walked a lone

Narrow streets of cobbles tone

'Neath the halo of a street la mp

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 s ound of s ilence

And in the naked light I s aw

Ten thousand people, maybe m ore

People talking withou t speakin g

People hearing with out listen ing

People writing songs that voices never s hare

And no one dared

Disturb the s ound of s ilence

"Fools" said I, "You do not know

Silence like a cancer g rows

Hear my words that I mig ht teach yo u

Take my arms that I m ight reach you"

But my words, like silent raindrops, fel l

Echoed in the wells of silence

And the people bowed and p rayed

To the neon god they m ade

And the sign flashed out i ts warni ng

In the words that it w as form ing

And the sign said, the words of the prophets are written on the subway w alls

And tenement halls

Whispered in the sound N.C. of sile nce."
