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 the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walk alone
Narrow streets of cobble stone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar 2 the cold &damp
When my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked night 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
Fool said I U do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach U
Take my arms that I might reach U
But my words like silent rain-drops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bow &prayed
To the neon God they made
And the sign flash out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said The words of the prophers
Are written the subway walls &tenement halls
And whispered in the sounds of silence
