AmiHello, darkness, my old Gfriend. I've come to talk with you, Amiagain, Because a vision softly FcreepiCng Left its seeds while I was FsleepiCng. And the Fvision that was planted In my brCain Still remainsAmi CWithin the Gsound of siAmilence.In restless dreams I walked alone Through narrow streets of cobblestone, Beneath the halo of a street lamp, I turned my collar to the cold and damp When my eyes were stabbed by the flash Of a neon light Split the night And touched the sound of silence. And in the naked light I saw Ten thousand people, mabye more, People talking without speaking, People hearing without listening, People writing songs that voices Never shared- No one dared- Disturb the sound of silence. "Fools! " said I, "You do not know Silence like a cancer qrows. Hear my words that I might teach you, Take my arms that I might reach you." But my words like silent raindrops fell (Oh, oh, oh) And echoes in the wells of silence. And the people bowed and prayed To the neon god they made. And the sign flashed out its warning In the words that it was forming. And the signs said, "The words of the prophets Are writen on the subway walls And tenement halls," And whisper in the sounds of silence.
