[00:06.690]Hello darkness my old friend. [00:09.79...
[00:06.690]Hello darkness my old friend.
[00:09.799]I've come to talk with you again.
[00:14.799]Because a vision softly creeping
[00:19.800]Left its seeds while I was sleeping.
[00:23.800]And the vision that was planted in my brain
[00:30.800]Still remains within the sound of silence
[00:40.680]In restless dreams I walked alone
[00:45.680]narrow streets of cobblestone
[00:49.680]Neath the halo of a streetlamp,
[00:54.680]I turned my collar to the cold and damp
[00:58.680]When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
[01:04.780]split the night
[01:08.690]And touched the sound of silence
[01:14.690]And in the naked light I saw, ten thousand people, maybe more
[01:23.690]People talking without speaking, people hearing without listening
[01:32.690]People writing songs that voices never shared, and no one dared
[01:42.690]To disturb the sound of silence
[01:49.690]Fool, said I, you do not know
[01:53.690]silence, like a cancer, grows
[01:58.690]Hear my words and I might teach you
[02:02.690]take my arms then I might reach you
[02:07.690]But my words, like silent raindrops fell
[02:15.799]and echoed in the wells of silence
[02:22.799]And the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they'd made
[02:32.399]And the sign flashed its warning in the words that it was forming
[02:41.399]And the sign said the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
[02:51.399]And tenement halls, and whispered in the sounds of silence
