hello darkness my old friend
<470, 1260><670, 1260><255, 1260><255, 1260><900, 1260>
i've come to talk with you again
<510, 1260><100, 1260><220, 1260><280, 1260><300, 1260><331, 1260><883, 1260>
because a vision softly creeping
<663, 1260><357, 1260><426, 1260><703, 1260><1283, 1260>
left it seems while i was sleeping
<300, 1260><341, 1260><408, 1260><211, 1260><260, 1260><361, 1260><1223, 1260>
and the vision that was planted in my brain
<362, 1260><361, 1260><640, 1260><362, 1260><361, 1260><760, 1260><342, 1260><341, 1260><1063, 1260>
still remains
<403, 1260><2799, 1260>
within the sound of silence
<662, 1260><320, 1260><381, 1260><403, 1260><1073, 1260>
in restless dreams i walk alone
<304, 1260><600, 1260><402, 1260><226, 1260><292, 1260><804, 1260>
our streets of cobblestone
<189, 1260><366, 1260><234, 1260><1420, 1260>
neath the halo of a street lamp
<425, 1260><234, 1260><610, 1260><289, 1260><299, 1260><539, 1260><860, 1260>
i turned my collar to the cold and damp
<299, 1260><370, 1260><249, 1260><560, 1260><290, 1260><280, 1260><289, 1260><299, 1260><940, 1260>
when my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
<299, 1260><299, 1260><299, 1260><299, 1260><871, 1260><280, 1260><289, 1260><686, 1260><225, 1260><289, 1260><699, 1260><799, 1260>
that split the night
<299, 1260><406, 1260><165, 1260><729, 1260>
and touch the sound of silence
<332, 1260><320, 1260><300, 1260><311, 1260><343, 1260><1540, 1260>
and the naked lighthouse of
<343, 1260><343, 1260><600, 1260><840, 1260><843, 1260>
ten thousand people day before
<463, 1260><560, 1260><440, 1260><343, 1260><1123, 1260>
talking without speaking
<763, 1260><600, 1260><1387, 1260>
people hearing without listening
<767, 1260><600, 1260><600, 1260><1307, 1260>
people riding songs that voices never share
<807, 1260><452, 1260><1991, 1260><431, 1260><1351, 1260><431, 1260><1131, 1260>
no one dare to stir the sound of silence
<376, 1260><375, 1260><511, 1260><413, 1260><343, 1260><340, 1260><375, 1260><431, 1260><1063, 1260>
fools that i even know
<532, 1260><132, 1260><183, 1260><247, 1260><747, 1260>
silence like a answer grows
<724, 1260><200, 1260><243, 1260><523, 1260><1420, 1260>
hear my words and i might be too
<324, 1260><300, 1260><303, 1260><224, 1260><223, 1260><360, 1260><327, 1260><940, 1260>
take my arms and i might reach out to you
<324, 1260><323, 1260><665, 1260><232, 1260><303, 1260><320, 1260><465, 1260><255, 1260><304, 1260><803, 1260>
but my words like silent raindrops fade the flicker
<304, 1260><303, 1260><327, 1260><327, 1260><1007, 1260><1457, 1260><2703, 1260><78, 1260><759, 1260>
in the winds of silence
<218, 1260><178, 1260><1679, 1260><275, 1260><1535, 1260>
there are people bowed and prayed
<298, 1260><257, 1260><515, 1260><475, 1260><275, 1260><935, 1260>
in the neon god they made
<258, 1260><257, 1260><475, 1260><258, 1260><257, 1260><775, 1260>
the sign flashed
<192, 1260><332, 1260><544, 1260>
it's warning in the words that it was for me
<520, 1260><1024, 1260><285, 1260><220, 1260><264, 1260><245, 1260><200, 1260><284, 1260><329, 1260><829, 1260>
and the signs said the words of the prophets
<305, 1260><304, 1260><623, 1260><233, 1260><300, 1260><324, 1260><285, 1260><284, 1260><662, 1260>
and written on the subway walls
<257, 1260><432, 1260><257, 1260><329, 1260><640, 1260><1639, 1260>
and set a payphone
<329, 1260><232, 1260><225, 1260><1132, 1260>
whisper in the sound
<667, 1260><194, 1260><193, 1260><767, 1260>
of silence
<267, 1260><2087, 1260>
