The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel
Hello, darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision
That was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
Beneath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes (1)________ stabbed
By the (2)__________ of a neon light
That split the night
And (3)______________ the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten (4)________________ people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs (5)________ voices never share...
And no one dare
Disturb the sound of silence.
Fools, said I, you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.
But my words (6)________ silent (7)__________________ fell,
And (8)____________ in the wells of silence.
And the people bowed and prayed
To the (9)________ god they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming.
And the signs said: The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls,
And whisper'd in the sound of silence.
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision
That was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
Beneath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes (1)________ stabbed
By the (2)__________ of a neon light
That split the night
And (3)______________ the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten (4)________________ people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs (5)________ voices never share...
And no one dare
Disturb the sound of silence.
Fools, said I, you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.
But my words (6)________ silent (7)__________________ fell,
And (8)____________ in the wells of silence.

And whisper'd in the sound of silence.
