Sounds Of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've (1)________ to talk with you again
Because a vision (2)____________ creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was (3)______________ in my brain
Still remains
Within the (4)__________ of silence
In (5)________________ dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the (6)________ of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my (7)________ were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And (8)______________ the sound of silence
And in the (9)__________ light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking (10)______________ speaking
People hearing (11)______________ listening
People (12)______________ songs (13)________ (14)____________ (15)__________ share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools", (16)________ I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows."
"Hear my words that I (17)__________ (18)__________ you,
Take my arms (19)________ I (20)__________ (21)__________ you."
But my words, (22)________ (23)____________ raindrops fell,
And echoed In the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god (24)________ made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign (25)__________ "The (26)__________ of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls,
And whispered in the sounds of silence."
