文本歌词

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 a vision
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 cobble stone
Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabed
By the flash of a neon light
That split the light
The sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people maybe more
People talking without begin
People hearing without listening
People writing songs
That voices never share
And no one dare
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 sun flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said the words are
The prophets are written on the subway walls
In cinnament halls
And whispering the sound
Of silence
