Ive come to use of you again
Because this beings softly creeping
Snook around while you were sleeping
And the "vision", i planted in its brain
Now remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams i walked alone
Shallow streets of cobblestone
Neath the halo of a street lamp
I rushed my ass to the warm and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash
of a neon light, that split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light i saw
Ten thousand asians, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
Children singing songs that voices wouldnt share
No one dare
Disturb the sound of silence
Fools said i, do you not know
Current on the downstream grows
Hear my words i might teach you
Hold my arms, let me reach you
But my words
Like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the People bowed and prayed
And the sign flashed out its warning
Another said the words of the prophets
And tehement halls
