Lyrics:

Hello darkness, my old friend

Hello darkness, my old friend

I've come to talk with you again

I'm coming again Talking with you about the vast sea and sky

Because a vision softly creeping

Because a shadow sneaked in quietly

Left its seeds while I was sleeping

And the vision that was planted in my brain

This shadow is rooted in my brain

Still remains

Still in the territory of the sound of silence

With in the sound of silence

In restless dreams I walked alone

I wander alone in restless dreams

Narrow streets of cobblestone

The cobblestone streets are narrow and long

Neath the halo of a street lamp

Under the glow of a street lamp

I turned my collar to the cold and damp

I turned my collar up to resist the cold and damp< /p>

When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light

That split the night

The light cut through the night sky

And touched the sound of silence

Breaked the silence

And in the naked light I saw

In the weak candlelight I saw

Ten thousand people, maybe more

Thousands of people, maybe more

People talking without speaking

People speaking without speaking

People hearing without listening

People hearing without listening

People writing songs that voices never share

People writing songs that voices never share

And no one dare disturb the sound of silence

silence "Fools" said I, "You do not know

"Fools" said I, "You do not know" Silence like a cancer grows”

Silence grows like a cancer”

Hea

r my words that I might teach you

Helpful teachings you should listen to

Take my arms that I might reach you

Helpful arms you should hold

But my words like silent raindrops fell

But my words like silent raindrops fell

And echoed in the wells of silence

Gradually blurred in the source of silence

And the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they made.

People bowed and prayed to the neon god they made.

And the sign flashed out its warning

And the words that it was forming

The words that it was forming

And the sign said:

The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls

"The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls

" mottos are graffitied on large subway walls

and tenement halls

and apartment corridors

And whispered in the sound of silence."
