Blank page was all the rage Never meant to say anything In bed I was half dead Tired of dreaming of rest Got dressed drove the state line Looking for you at the five and dime Stop sign told me stay at home Told me you were not alone Blank page was all the rage Never meant to hurt anyone In bed I was half dead Tired of dreaming of rest You haven't changed You're still the same May you rise as you fall You were easy you are forgotten You are the ways of my mistakes I catch the rainfall Through the leaking roof That you had left behind You remind me Of that leak in my soul The rain falls My friends call Leaking rain on the phone Take a day plant some trees May they shade you from me May your children play beneath Blank page was all the rage Never meant to say anything In bed I was half dead Tired of dreaming of rest Got dressed drove the state line Looking for you at the five and dime But there I was picking pieces up You are a ghost Of my indecision No more little girl

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 Beneath 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 dared Disturb the sound of silence Hello darkness, my old friend I've come to talk with you again
