The sound of silence

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 plated in my silence

in restless dreams i walked alone
narrow street of cobblestone
beneath the halo of a street lamp
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 withouot speaking
people hearing without listening
people writing songs that voice naver share
and no one 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 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 signs said the words of the prophets
are written on the subway walls
and tenement halls
whispered in the sound of silence
           



오늘처럼 비오는 날,

여러분들이 우연히 들른 블로그에서,

이 음악이 나오면

아,

그래, 이노래였어

라고 생각하시면 좋겠어요.



안녕, 나의 오랜 친구 어둠이여

요즘 제 친구에 대한 노래군요!



그나저나,

여러분들의 고요한 일상은,

어떤 소리를 내고 계시나요.
