hello darkness my old friend
<520, 1260><640, 1260><280, 1260><280, 1260><860, 1260>
i come to talk with you again
<320, 1260><260, 1260><260, 1260><280, 1260><300, 1260><335, 1260><891, 1260>
because a vision softly creeping
<696, 1260><367, 1260><448, 1260><671, 1260><1291, 1260>
left its seeds while i was sleeping
<276, 1260><424, 1260><271, 1260><209, 1260><280, 1260><376, 1260><1213, 1260>
and the vision that was planted in my brain
<357, 1260><356, 1260><600, 1260><377, 1260><376, 1260><760, 1260><357, 1260><356, 1260><1013, 1260>
still remains
<393, 1260><2799, 1260>
within the sound of silence
<677, 1260><320, 1260><356, 1260><393, 1260><1078, 1260>
in restless dreams i walk alone
<320, 1260><600, 1260><390, 1260><250, 1260><320, 1260><820, 1260>
our streets and cobblestone
<150, 1260><364, 1260><236, 1260><1401, 1260>
neath the halo of a street lamp
<385, 1260><236, 1260><611, 1260><290, 1260><301, 1260><541, 1260><860, 1260>
i turned my collar to the cold and damp
<301, 1260><350, 1260><250, 1260><571, 1260><280, 1260><290, 1260><301, 1260><301, 1260><921, 1260>
when my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
<291, 1260><290, 1260><301, 1260><301, 1260><870, 1260><290, 1260><301, 1260><644, 1260><226, 1260><290, 1260><680, 1260><801, 1260>
that split the night
<301, 1260><404, 1260><186, 1260><750, 1260>
and touched the sound of silence
<360, 1260><360, 1260><260, 1260><340, 1260><360, 1260><1500, 1260>
and the naked light i saw
<360, 1260><360, 1260><580, 1260><340, 1260><360, 1260><900, 1260>
ten thousand people maybe more
<480, 1260><560, 1260><440, 1260><320, 1260><820, 1260>
people talking without speaking
<765, 1260><600, 1260><600, 1260><1385, 1260>
people hearing without listening
<765, 1260><600, 1260><640, 1260><1265, 1260>
people writing songs that that voices never share
<743, 1260><622, 1260><2003, 1260><482, 1260><209, 1260><1120, 1260><339, 1260><999, 1260>
no one dared to stir the sound of silence
<339, 1260><339, 1260><459, 1260><339, 1260><391, 1260><320, 1260><329, 1260><339, 1260><1380, 1260>
fools that i do know
<515, 1260><175, 1260><249, 1260><310, 1260><809, 1260>
feelings like a cancer grows
<281, 1260><199, 1260><257, 1260><594, 1260><1414, 1260>
hear my words and i might teach you
<274, 1260><274, 1260><274, 1260><197, 1260><197, 1260><394, 1260><458, 1260><716, 1260>
take my arms and i might reach out to you
<274, 1260><274, 1260><698, 1260><216, 1260><274, 1260><314, 1260><458, 1260><216, 1260><257, 1260><757, 1260>
but my words have silent raindrops there
<305, 1260><304, 1260><329, 1260><329, 1260><1009, 1260><1536, 1260><764, 1260>
flicker in the wells of silent
<609, 1260><245, 1260><244, 1260><1640, 1260><329, 1260><1140, 1260>
there are people out of place
<324, 1260><284, 1260><520, 1260><328, 1260><324, 1260><824, 1260>
in the neon god they made
<304, 1260><304, 1260><440, 1260><304, 1260><260, 1260><784, 1260>
have the sign flashed
<328, 1260><152, 1260><332, 1260><583, 1260>
it's warning in the words that it was for me
<520, 1260><1024, 1260><304, 1260><220, 1260><244, 1260><224, 1260><180, 1260><284, 1260><328, 1260><828, 1260>
and the signs said the words of the prophets
<304, 1260><304, 1260><664, 1260><232, 1260><280, 1260><304, 1260><304, 1260><304, 1260><623, 1260>
and written on the subway walls
<256, 1260><432, 1260><256, 1260><328, 1260><640, 1260><1668, 1260>
and sent a bitter hall
<328, 1260><312, 1260><224, 1260><448, 1260><764, 1260>
whisper the sound
<760, 1260><300, 1260><800, 1260>
of silence
<320, 1260><2140, 1260>
