00:00.0
00:08.9
For you, I'll sing this song
00:08.9
00:11.1
Please stay, it won't last long
00:11.1
00:13.4
Years after we are long gone
00:13.4
00:15.7
The meaning will stay strong
00:15.7
00:17.8
Silence is what this song's about
00:17.9
00:20.2
Numb to the world all around
00:20.2
00:22.7
But I will sing of this place
00:22.7
00:25.9
Hoping it finds you some way
00:25.9
00:29.4
People needing to be saved
00:29.4
00:31.7
Scream out for help every day
00:31.7
00:34.2
But we grow numb to the sounds
00:34.2
00:36.4
And feelings slowly start to drown
00:36.4
00:38.7
The first time, we can hear a voice
00:38.7
00:40.9
But soon it all becomes noise
00:40.9
00:43.2
Fading to silence in the end
00:43.2
00:45.4
I know it doesn't make sense...
00:45.4
00:47.7
When sound all ceases to exist
00:47.7
00:49.9
People think that means happiness
00:49.9
00:52.4
And all the sounds that used to be
00:52.4
00:54.4
Are all just noise to you and me
00:54.4
00:56.9
The cries of help disappear
00:56.9
00:59.2
The silence numbs all of our ears
00:59.2
01:01.4
And when we stop listening
01:01.4
01:06.3
Those screams stop meaning anything
01:06.3
01:19.0
Don't you let your heart grow numb to everyone
01:19.0
01:26.3
Oh child, listen to the “sound of silence”
01:26.3
01:36.8
Saving someone else means saving yourself
01:36.8
01:45.3
It's true, and I'm sure you know it too
01:45.3
01:47.3
When you hear an “SOS”
01:47.3
01:49.5
Answering it becomes a test
01:49.5
01:51.8
It can give the life you lead
01:51.8
01:54.0
A meaning that you'd never seen
01:54.0
01:56.3
So don't resist a call for help
01:56.3
01:58.5
Cause in the end it will tell you
01:58.5
02:01.0
How to treasure yourself
02:01.0
02:03.0
And not be alone
02:03.0
02:05.5
It might seem a little strange
02:05.5
02:07.8
To share this song this way
02:07.8
02:10.0
But I know what I must do
02:10.0
02:12.3
Is share the meaning with you
02:12.3
02:14.5
All this I learned from someone
02:14.5
02:16.8
Who spent his life among
02:16.8
02:19.3
People screaming out for help
02:19.3
02:23.0
Doing everything to reach out
02:23.0
02:36.3
Don't you let your heart grow numb to everyone
02:36.3
02:43.8
Oh child, listen to the “sound of silence”
02:43.8
02:54.5
Saving someone else means saving yourself
02:54.5
03:03.6
It's true, and I'm sure you know it too
03:03.6
03:54.5
Don't you let your heart grow numb to everyone
03:54.5
04:01.7
Oh child, listen to the “sound of silence”
04:01.7
04:12.2
Saving someone else means saving yourself
04:12.2
04:20.7
It's true, and I'm sure you know it too
04:20.7
05:24.0
Now I'd like to thank you for staying by my side
