Couplet
AmHello darkness, my old Gfriend
GI've come to talk with you aAmgain
AmBecause a vision softly FcreeCping
Left its seeds while I Fwas sleeCping
And the Fvision that was Fplanted in my Cbrain
Still C/Bremains Am
Within the Gsound of Amsilence
Couplet
N.C.In restless dreams I walked aGlone
GNarrow streets of cobblesAmtone
Am'Neath the halo of a Fstreet Clamp
I turned my collar to the Fcold and Cdamp
When my Feyes were stabbed by the Fflash of a neon Clight
That split the C/Bnight Am
CAnd touched the Gsound of Amsilence
Couplet
AmAnd in the naked light I Gsaw
GTen thousand people, maybe Ammore
AmPeople talking wiFthout speaCking
People hearing wiFthout listeCning
People writing Fsongs that Fvoices never Cshare
And no one C/Bdared Am
CDisturb the Gsound of Amsilence
Couplet
Am"Fools" said I, "You do not Gknow
GSilence like a cancer Amgrows
AmHear my words that I Fmight teach Cyou
Take my arms that I Fmight reach Cyou"
But my Fwords, like Fsilent raindrops, C C/Bfell Am
CEchoed in the Gwells of Amsilence
Couplet
AmAnd the people bowed and Gprayed
GTo the neon god they Ammade
AmAnd the sign flashed out Fits warCning
In the words that it Fwas forCming
And the sign said, "The Fwords of the prophets are Fwritten on the subway Cwalls
And tenement C/Bhalls Am
CWhispered in Gthe sound N.C.of siAmlence." Am
