Lyric discussion by Mystrocool 

Not sure if this is obvious or not but the last 3 lines are a reference to Simon and Garfunkel's "Sound of Silence". The lines from that are:

And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls And tenement halls" And whispered in the sounds of silence

interesting tidbit about this song.

@Mystrocool Thanks. I thought that line sounded familiar from somewhere, but I couldn't make the connection.

An error occured.
