[00:40.93]Hello darkness, my old friend,
[00:44.78]I've come to talk with you again,
[00:48.97]Because a vision softly creeping,
[00:53.42]Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
[00:57.93]And the vision that was planted in my brain
[01:03.94]Still remains
[01:07.17]Within the sound of silence.
[01:10.86]
[02:22.54]In restless dreams I walked alone
[02:26.48]Narrow streets of cobblestone,
[02:31.04]'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
[02:35.12]I turned my collar to the cold and damp
[02:39.12]When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
[02:45.64]That split the night
[02:48.73]And touched the sound of silence.
[02:53.47]
[02:56.15]And in the naked light I saw
[03:00.50]Ten thousand people, maybe more.
[03:04.67]People talking without speaking,
[03:09.09]People hearing without listening,
[03:13.50]People writing songs that voices never share
[03:20.62]And no one dared
[03:22.70]Disturb the sound of silence.
[03:26.59]
[03:58.40]And touched the sound of silence.
[04:32.02]And touched the sound of silence.
