The Sound Of Silence歌词

Hello darkness my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain still remains
within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
narrrow streets and cobblestone
Beneath the halo of a streetlamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of the neon light that split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
ten thousand people maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never shared,
no one dares to stir the sound of silence
Fool,said I,you do not know
silence,like a cancer,grows
Hear my words and I might teach you
Take my arms then I might reach you
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they had made
And the sign flashed out its warning in the words that it was forming
And the sign said the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenement halls
and whispered the sound of silence
