natalie prass - sound of silence lyrics
[verse 1]
h-llo darkness, my old friend
i’ve come to talk with you again
because a vision softly creeping
left its seeds while i was sleeping
and the vision that was planted in my brain
still remains
within the sound of silence
[verse 2]
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 of a neon light
that split the night
and touched the sound of silence
[verse 3]
and in the naked light i saw
ten thousand people, maybe more
people talking without speaking
people hearing without listening
people writing songs that voices never share
and no one dared
disturb the sound of silence
[bridge]
“fools”, said i, “you do not know
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
and echoed
in the wells of silence
[verse 4]
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
and the sign said:
“the words of the prophets are
written on the subway walls
and tenement halls
and whispered in the sound of silence.”
