And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out it’s 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 sounds of silence.”
“The Sound Of Silence” was released in October 1964 as an acoustic ballad recorded by Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel.
Yes. I hear you. XO
