Lyrics for Sound Of Silence by Nevermore:
| | | Artist: | Nevermore |
| | Album: | A Dead Heart In A Dead World | | Track: | Sound Of Silence | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 72 | | | | Lyrics: | Hello 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.
The sound of
silence...
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
It split the
night...
And touched the sound of silence.
The sound of silence...
And the
people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made.
Fools. said I, You do not
know
Silence like a cancer grows.
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand
people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening
(listening)!
System check!
Neon black!
And the sign flashed out its
warning,
In the words that it was forming.
The words of the prophets are written on the
subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whispered...
In the sound of silence.
The
sounds of silence...
The sounds of silence!
The sounds...
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 | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
