. m: n+ V- Z, J" Y9 b+ cHello darkness, my old friend,
Ive come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,

5 `% V# H: w( x+ ?/ {7 e& fAnd the vision that was planted in my brain
/ W, o3 I  K  Y/ WStill remains
Within the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone

neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
5 M. G1 c/ H0 w& U/ gWhen my eyes were stabbed by the flash of

Ten thousand people, maybe more.

And no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.

But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
