Lyrics
0:07For you I'll sing this song
0:09Please stay it won't last long
0:11Years after we are long gone
0:13The meaning will stay strong
0:16Silence is what this song's about
0:18Numb to the world all around
0:20But I will sing of this place
0:23Hoping it finds you some way
0:27People needing to be saved
0:29Scream out for help every day
0:32But we grow numb to the sounds
0:34And feelings slowly start to drown
0:36The first time we can hear a voice
0:39But soon it all becomes noise
0:41Fading to silence in the end
0:43I know it doesn't make sense
0:45When sound all ceases to exist
0:48People think that means happiness
0:50And all the sounds that used to be
0:52Are all just noise to you and me
0:55The cries of help disappear
0:57The silence numbs all of our ears
0:59And when we stop listening
1:01Those screams stop meaning anything
1:08Don't you let your heart grow numb to everyone
1:19Oh child listen to the sound of silence
1:26Saving someone else means saving yourself
1:37It's true and I'm sure you know it too
1:45When you hear an SOS
1:47Answering it becomes a test
1:50It can give the life you lead
1:52A meaning that you'd never seen
1:54So don't resist a call for help
1:56Cause in the end it will tell you
1:59How to treasure yourself
2:01And not be alone
2:03It might seem a little strange
2:06To share this song this way
2:08But I know what I must do
2:10Is share the meaning with you
2:12All this I learned from someone
2:15Who spent his life among
2:17People screaming out for help
2:19Doing everything to reach out
2:26Don't you let your heart grow numb to everyone
2:37Oh child listen to the sound of silence
2:44Saving someone else means saving yourself
2:55It's true and I'm sure you know it too
3:43Don't you let your heart grow numb to everyone
3:55Oh child listen to the sound of silence
4:02Saving someone else means saving yourself
4:13It's true and I'm sure you know it too
4:20Now I'd like to thank you for staying by my side
For you I'll sing this song Please stay it won't last long Years after we are long gone The meaning will stay strong Silence is what this song's about Numb to the world all around But I will sing of this place Hoping it finds you some way People needing to be saved Scream out for help every day But we grow numb to the sounds And feelings slowly start to drown The first time we can hear a voice But soon it all becomes noise Fading to silence in the end I know it doesn't make sense When sound all ceases to exist People think that means happiness And all the sounds that used to be Are all just noise to you and me The cries of help disappear The silence numbs all of our ears And when we stop listening Those screams stop meaning anything Don't you let your heart grow numb to everyone Oh child listen to the sound of silence Saving someone else means saving yourself It's true and I'm sure you know it too When you hear an SOS Answering it becomes a test It can give the life you lead A meaning that you'd never seen So don't resist a call for help Cause in the end it will tell you How to treasure yourself And not be alone It might seem a little strange To share this song this way But I know what I must do Is share the meaning with you All this I learned from someone Who spent his life among People screaming out for help Doing everything to reach out Don't you let your heart grow numb to everyone Oh child listen to the sound of silence Saving someone else means saving yourself It's true and I'm sure you know it too Don't you let your heart grow numb to everyone Oh child listen to the sound of silence Saving someone else means saving yourself It's true and I'm sure you know it too Now I'd like to thank you for staying by my side
