\[Mim]Hello darkness, my old \[Ré]friend,
|
|
I've come to talk with you a\[Mim]gain,
|
|
Because a vision sof\[Do]tly cree\[Sol]ping,
|
|
Left it seeds while I \[Do]was slee\[Sol]ping,
|
|
And the \[Do]vision that was planted in my \[Sol]brain
|
|
Still re\[Mim]mains
|
|
Within the \[Ré]sound of \[Mim]silence.

\beginverse
|
|
In restless dreams I walked alone
|
|
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
|
|
Neath the halo of 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.
|
|
\endverse
|
|
|
|
\beginverse
|
|
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 dare
|
|
Disturb the sound of silence.
|
|
\endverse

|
\beginverse
|
|
``Fools'' said I, ``You don't know
|
|
Silence's like a cancer grows.
|
|
Hear my words and I might teach you,
|
|
Take my arms and I might reach you.''
|
|
But my words like silence raindrops fell,
|
|
And echoed
|
|
In the wells of silence.
|
|
\endverse
|
|
|
|
\beginverse
|
|
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 tenements halls.''
|
|
And whispered in the sound of silence.
