When my eyes were stabbed By the flash of a neon light
Split the night
And touched the sound of silence
Fools said I do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you
But my words
Like silent raindrops fell
And echoed In the wells of silence
Within the sound of silence
[00:03.66]Hello darkness, my old friend [00:05.66] [00:07.73]I've come to talk with you again [00:09.84] [00:12.53]Because a vision softly creeping [00:15.40] [00:17.15]Left its seeds while I was sleeping [00:19.96] [00:21.89]And the vision [00:23.14] [00:24.51]That was planted in my brain [00:27.13] [00:28.88]Still remains [00:30.75] [00:33.50]Within the sound of silence [00:37.06] [00:39.17]In restless dreams I walked alone [00:41.49] [00:44.29]Narrow streets of cobblestone [00:46.48] [00:48.60]'Neath the halo of a street lamp [00:52.04] [00:53.47]Turned my collar to the cold and damned [00:56.41] [00:57.96]When my eyes were stabbed [01:00.90]By the flash of a neon light [01:03.02] [01:04.95]Split the night [01:05.76] [01:09.51]And touched the sound of silence [01:13.13] [01:15.81]Fools said I do not know [01:17.56] [01:20.43]Silence like a cancer grows [01:22.11] [01:24.80]Hear my words that I might teach you [01:27.60] [01:29.29]Take my arms that I might reach you [01:32.35] [01:33.90]But my words [01:35.15] [01:36.52]Like silent raindrops fell [01:39.40] [01:43.95]And echoed [01:46.39]In the wells of silence [01:48.81] [02:21.82]Within the sound of silence
