The Sound Of Silence
[00:00.41] ♫
[00:00.86] Hello darkness
[00:01.05] My old friend
[00:03.19] I’ve come to talk
[00:05.58] With you again
[00:07.96] Because a vision
[00:10.09] Softly creeping
[00:12.75] Left its seeds
[00:14.34] While I was sleeping
[00:17.26] And the vision
[00:19.12] That was planted
[00:21.78] In my brain
[00:23.90] Still remains
[00:26.56] Within the sound of silence
[00:33.20] In restless dreams
[00:35.06] I walked alone
[00:37.17] Narrow streets
[00:39.57] Of cobblestone
[00:41.97] ‘Neath the halo
[00:44.10] Of a streetlamp
[00:47.54] I turned my collar
[00:48.87] To the cold and damp
[00:51.79] When my eyes were stabbed
[00:54.71] By the flash
[00:55.78] Of a neon light
[00:58.16] That split the night
[01:01.09] And touched the sound of silence
[01:07.73] And in the naked light
[01:10.12] I saw
[01:11.71] Ten thousand people
[01:14.11] Maybe more
[01:16.76] People talking
[01:18.62] Without speaking
[01:21.01] People hearing
[01:23.14] Without listening
[01:25.79] People writing songs
[01:29.24] That voices never share
[01:33.76] No one dare
[01:35.88] Disturb the sound of silence
[01:42.79] "Fools" said I
[01:44.38] “You do not know
[01:46.78] Silence like a cancer grow
[01:51.30] Hear my words
[01:52.88] That I might teach you
[01:55.81] Take my arms
[01:57.40] That I might reach you"
[02:00.06] But my words
[02:01.92] Like silent raindrops fell
[02:06.96] ♪
[02:08.57] And echoed in
[02:12.46] The wells of silence
[02:16.72] And the people
[02:18.85] Bowed and prayed
[02:21.77] To the neon god they made
[02:24.96] And the sign flashed out
[02:28.15] Its warning
[02:30.00] In the words
[02:31.86] That it was forming
[02:35.04] And the sign said
[02:36.64] "The words of the prophets
[02:38.51] Are written on subway walls
[02:41.95] And tenement halls
[02:44.87] And whispered
[02:47.26] In the sounds of silence"
