[00:00.00]The Sounds of Silence (Live at Central Park, New York, NY - September 19, 1981) - Simon & Garfunkel
[00:05.03]Written by:Paul Simon
[00:10.07]Hello darkness my old friend
[00:15.20]I've come to talk with you again
[00:20.16]Because a vision softly creeping
[00:25.57]Left its seeds while I was sleeping
[00:30.81]And the vision that was planted in my brain
[00:38.60]Still remains
[00:42.70]Within the sound of silence
[00:49.11]In restless dreams I walked alone
[00:54.99]Narrow streets of cobblestone
[01:00.25]'Neath the halo of a street lamp
[01:04.92]I turned my collar to the cold and damp
[01:10.88]When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
[01:18.99]That split the night
[01:23.10]And touched the sound of silence
[01:29.81]And in the naked light I saw
[01:35.37]Ten thousand people maybe more
[01:41.30]People talking without speaking
[01:46.93]People hearing without listening
[01:52.30]People writing songs that voices never share
[02:01.66]And no one dare disturb the sound of silence
[02:12.74]Fools said I You do not know
[02:18.09]Silence like a cancer grows
[02:23.77]Hear my words that I might teach you
[02:29.32]Take my arms that I might reach you
[02:35.04]But my words like silent as raindrops fell
[02:46.82]And echoed in the wells of silence
[02:55.94]And the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they made
[03:06.50]And the sign flashed out its warning
[03:11.85]And the words that it was forming
[03:17.20]And the sign said
[03:18.75]The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
[03:26.30]And tenement halls
[03:29.59]And whispered in the sound of silence
