The Sound Of Silence Lyrics

Hello darkness
Hello darkness my old friend
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 with the Sounds of Silence

And in naked light I saw ten thousand people may be more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share and no one dare
Disturb the Sounds of Silence

"Fools!" said I "You do not know silence like a cancer grows" "Hear my words that I might reach you take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words like silent rain-drops fell and echoed in the wells of silence
And people bowed and prayed to the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out is warming
In the words that I was forming
And the signs said: "the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenement halls"
And whispered in the Sound of Silence
Ahh ahh ahh Mmm mmm ahhh aah oohh
And whispered in the sound of silence
