Disturbed - The Sound Of Silece

Hello, darkness, my old friend I've come to talk with you again

Because a vision softly creeping Left its scenes 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 turned my color to the cold and damp

When my eyes were stammed 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 share

And no one dare

Disturb the sound

I'm silence fool said I you do not know silence like a cancer grow here my words

Words that I might teach you

Take my arms and 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 And the words that it was forming

In the silence and the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls

In tenement halls

And whispered in the sound of silence
