New discovery

The Sound of Silence
the sound of silence
Hello darkness, my old friend
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
I walked alone
Because a vision softly creeping
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
left while I was sleeping when its seeds
And the vision that was planted in my brain
I turned my collar to germinate
Still remains
around me
Within the sound of silence
accompanied by the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
the narrow cobblestone streets
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
split the shining
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
flash of a neon light piercing my eyes
That split the night
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence < br> touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
in the naked light
Ten thousand people, maybe more
I see thousands of people
People talking without speaking
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
deaf
People writing songs that voices never share
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dare disturb the sound of silence
no one dare disturb the sound of silence
grows reach to your hand
But my words like silent as raindrops fell
But my words like silent raindrops falling
And echoed in the wells of silence
echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they made.
people to create their own
the neon god they bowed and prayed And the sign flashed out its warning
the sign flashed out its warning
And the words that it was forming
the words that
And the sign said:
It tells people
subway walls
and tenement halls
and tenement halls
And whispered in the sound of silence.
