The Silent
Various Artists Lyrics


When I close my eyes, then I cover my ears
It's almost like you are near
It's a silent love! Shh
Silent love! Shh!
Silent love! No, seriously, shh!
Talkin' 'bout silent love!
Stop singing!
All the ladies in the house now! Silent love!
Silent love?
Gene! I did a "fellas in the house"! I can't do the ladies and not do the fellas!
Just be quiet!
Let me sing!
No! It's not a duet!
Silent love, it's a sillent
You are so annoying!

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 shared
No one dared
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"


Since we had no lyrics here, for those who needed them :)

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.

@Sqaceship

I think it may be full blast because his hearing is lacking

@melaniedevine4451

Nothing wrong with his faculties! Just loves it. My mum says "The sound of silence is deafening" what a quote ha ha.

@bryanm2734

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!!
