silence -----
C
In restless dreams I walked alone,
F
narrow streets of cobblestone
Bb Csus
'neath the halo of a streetlamp
Bb Csus
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
Bb Csus
when my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
F C F
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
noone dare, 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 the will 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 whisper the sounds of silence."
