[00:00.00]The Sound of Silence - Nouela
[00:03.69]Hello darkness my old friend
[00:08.66]I've come to talk with you again
[00:13.91]Because a vision softly creeping
[00:19.54]Left it's seeds while I was sleeping
[00:24.99]And the vision that was planted in my brain
[00:32.85]Still remains
[00:35.52]Within the sound of silence
[00:42.13]In restless dreams I walked alone
[00:47.54]Narrow streets of cobblestone
[00:52.94]'Neath the halo of a street lamp
[00:58.38]I turned my collar to the cold and damp
[01:03.35]When my eyes were stabbed by
[01:06.84]The flash of a neon light
[01:11.39]That split the night
[01:14.11]And touched the sound of silence
[01:20.71]And in the naked light I saw
[01:25.88]Ten thousand people maybe more
[01:31.68]People talking without speaking
[01:36.83]People hearing without listening
[01:42.32]People writing songs that voices never share
[01:51.56]And no one dared
[01:54.04]Disturb the sound of silence
[02:00.93]Fools said I you do not know
[02:06.14]Silence like a cancer grows
[02:11.67]Hear my words that I might teach you
[02:16.87]Take my arms that I might reach you
[02:22.03]But my words like silent raindrops fell
[02:32.06]And echoed in the wells of silence
[02:39.63]And the people bowed and prayed
[02:44.70]To the neon God they made
[02:50.42]And the sign flashed out it's warning
[02:55.46]In the words that it was forming
[02:59.73]And the sign said
[03:01.29]The words of the prophets are
[03:04.46]Written on the subway walls
[03:08.85]And tenement halls
[03:13.51]And whispered in the sounds of silence
