The Sounds Of Silence
[00:00.14] ♫
[00:01.68] Hello darkness
[00:04.00] My old friend
[00:06.65] I’ve come to talk
[00:08.50] With you again
[00:10.90] Because a vision
[00:13.03] Softly creeping
[00:15.94] Left its seeds
[00:17.80] While I was sleeping
[00:20.72] And the vision
[00:22.06] That was planted
[00:24.98] In my brain
[00:27.10] Still remains
[00:30.28] Within
[00:31.62] The sound of silence
[00:36.66] In restless dreams
[00:38.26] I walked alone
[00:40.91] Narrow streets
[00:42.77] Of cobblestone
[00:45.70] ‘Neath the halo
[00:47.30] Of a streetlamp
[00:49.96] I turned my collar
[00:51.55] To the cold and damp
[00:54.48] When my eyes were stabbed
[00:57.39] By the flash
[00:58.72] Of a neon light
[01:01.38] That split the night
[01:04.31] And touched
[01:06.17] The sound of silence
[01:10.14] And in the naked light
[01:13.07] I saw
[01:14.93] Ten thousand people
[01:17.05] Maybe more
[01:19.45] People talking
[01:21.57] Without speaking
[01:24.23] People hearing
[01:26.08] Without listening
[01:29.01] People writing songs
[01:32.45] That voices never share
[01:36.44] No one dare
[01:39.36] Disturb
[01:40.96] The sound of silence
[01:45.48] "Fools" said I
[01:47.07] “You do not know
[01:50.26] Silence like a cancer grow
[01:54.77] Hear my words
[01:56.09] That I might teach you
[01:58.76] Take my arms
[02:00.35] That I might reach you"
[02:03.54] But my words
[02:05.13] Like silent raindrops fell
[02:09.92] ♪
[02:12.32] And echoed in
[02:15.78] The wells of silence
[02:20.32] And the people
[02:21.63] Bowed and prayed
[02:24.83] To the neon god they made
[02:29.07] And the sign flashed out
[02:30.93] Its warning
[02:33.31] In the words
[02:34.39] That it was forming
[02:37.84] And the sign said
[02:39.69] The words of the prophets
[02:41.30] Are written on subway walls
[02:45.01] And tenement halls
[02:47.67] And whispered
[02:50.33] In the sounds of silence
