    Dust in the Wind





      
               I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone
              All my dreams, pass before my eyes, a curiosity
              Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind
              Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
              All we do, crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see

              Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind

              Don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
              It slips away, and all your money won't another minute buy

              Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind
              Dust in the wind, Everything is dust in the wind

    Sound of silence






    Hello darkness, my old friend,
    Ive 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 deared
    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.
    And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
