Sounds Of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've (1)________ to (2)________ with you again
Because a (3)____________ softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision (4)________ was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I (5)____________ alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a (6)____________ lamp
I (7)____________ my collar to the cold and damp
When my (8)________ were (9)______________ 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 (10)________________ people, maybe more
People talking (11)______________ speaking
People hearing (12)______________ listening
People (13)______________ songs (14)________ voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the (15)__________ of silence
"Fools", (16)________ I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows."
"Hear my words (17)________ I might teach you,
Take my arms that I (18)__________ (19)__________ you."
But my words, like silent (20)__________________ fell,
And echoed In the wells of silence
And the (21)____________ bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the (22)________ flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the (23)________ (24)__________ "The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls,
And (25)__________________ in the sounds of silence."
