VERSE
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
The vision that was planted in my brain
within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone narrow streets of cobblestone.
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp.
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
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
echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
Then the sign said the words on the prophets are
Written on the subway walls
And whispered in the sound
How would you rate this song?
