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
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turn 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
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 shared
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
"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
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
Its apparently about growing up...but even without knowing what it means I think the song is still hauntingly beautiful.
I still don't like growing up.
Why am I not going for his concert?????????
Your flowers drowning in some bitter tea,
Your seeing lost opportunity.
Find your mirror dont look inside,
see the talent you'll always hide,
don't go kid yourself for not today,
satisfactions not to far away.
Hold on now your exits here,
it's waiting just for you,
don't pause too long its fading now,
its ending all too soon
you'll see
Your Coffee's warm but your milk is sour
life is short but you had a flower,
dream yourself along another day,
never miss opportunity.
Don't be scared of what you cannot see
Your only fear is possibility,
never wondered what the hell went wrong,
your second chance may never come along.
