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

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
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 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"

  • my mom loved this version. She had to hear it everyday. she was battling Parkinsons and Dementia. She had gotten very weak and bed ridden, but we still played this for her at least once a day until the day she passed . It was playing during her final breath. I miss you mom!!

    I am 82 years old and a fan of the S&G version, but I am totally overwhelmed by Disturbed's cover. It is fascinating, mesmerizing, and I simply can't get enough of experiencing the emotion. This is what great music is all about. World class

    My Dad passed away a few weeks ago. He raised me on oldschool rock, a big fan of the 60s and 70s. This cover always resonated with him, and he played it all the time. He loved it so much more than the original that we played it at his service. I don't have words for how I feel right now, but to Disturbed I would just like to say thank you for this cover. It ended up being so important to my family...
  • My husband passed away in janu. He had the most beautiful voice. Today i lit a candle and played this song for him.

    Disturbed, When this came out I was homeless, on drugs, and then jail. I now have a house, job, and husband. This song and “Clover Cage - In the Moment” are the two songs that helped get rid of my depression. I just want to send love to everyone and I want everyone to know things will get better. We are in this together..I love you 💕
  • I am an old man dying of cancer and fell in love with the original soundtrack by Simon and Garfunkel back in the 60's. This once, Jewish Cantor takes this song to a different level for which I am eternally grateful. The strength, intensity, and power are simply inspiring. Thank you for a reimagined version of the original.

    We played this at my uncles funeral after he passed on Christmas Eve. He loved disturbed. I miss you Uncle Mark Edit: thank you for all the love you guys, y'all are the greatest. Edit: happy birthday uncle mark. The family got together and listened to this song. We love you.

    Right now, there are people all over the world who are just like you. They're either lonely, they're missing somebody, they're depressed, they're hurt, they're scarred from the past, they're having personal issues no one knows about, they have secrets you wouldn't believe. They wish, they dream and they hope. And right now, they are sitting there reading these words, and I'm writing this for you so you don't feel alone anymore. Always remember, don't be depressed about the past, don't worry about the future, and just focus on today. If today's not so great don't worry ! Tomorrow's a new chance. If you are reading this, be sure to share this around to make others to feel better. Have a beautiful day. :) :)

    My Maria passed in 2019. She had me listen to this and was moved. I am moved to tears now because it reminds me of her kind, gentle spirit and her love for me.
  • whoever listens to this song: Our mayor of GdaƄsk was buried in this atmosphere. May his soul and his loved ones rest in peace.

    I played this song to my grandad when it first came out a couple of weeks before he died and he cried. Ive never saw him cry before, my nana said it was the first time since after the WW2. Died at the age of 102, love you grandad. Edit: I was contemplating if i should even write this as the aim of this comment wasn't likes (clearly), however i feel the need to say thankyou everyone who had liked this comment- like seriously nearly 300, wow. But more importantly thankyou everyone who left kind comments wishing me well and keeping my spirits up. Youre all amazing and i hope you have a great day/night dependi g on where you are in the world.
  • My dad used to play the original when i was little.He's 82 now and when i go back home he's playing Disturbed cover on full blast! He loves it.
  • @rmatena8784
    In times of sadness i find my friend in the darkness, just to talk, crying and find my peace. This song gets me through shitty times❀
  • @Rikkodiene
    we played this at my nan's funeral, i can't describe how painful her passing was, still to this day i pray and hope to hear her voice again, life is too short man, treasure your loved ones
  • It's 2023 and it's still a masterpiece! It never goes out of style. Years later and it's still one of the best songs ever written.
