In restless dreams I walked aloDne Narrow streets of cobblesEtone Beneath the halo ofC a street lGamp I turned my collar to the Ccold and Gdamp When my Ceyes were stabbed by the flash of a neonG light That split the nEight E And touched the Dsound of Esilence
And in the naked light I sDaw Ten thousand people, maybe mEore People talking withCout speakinGg People hearing withoCut listenGing People writing Csongs that voices never Gshare And no one Edared E Disturb the Dsound of Esilence
"Fools, " said I, "You do not Dknow Silence, like a cancer, Egrows Hear my words that I Cmight teach Gyou Take my arms that I Cmight reach Gyou" But my Cwords, like silent raindrops Gfell E echoed in the wellDs, of sileEnce
And the people bowed and Dprayed To the neon god they Emade And the sign flashed out itCs warningG In the words that it waCs formingG And the sign said, "The Cwords of the prophets are written on the subway Gwalls And tenement Ehalls" E whispered in the sounDds of sileEnce
