Behind The Wall by Tracy Chapman

Last night I heard the screaming
Loud voices (1)____________ the wall
Another sleepless night for me
It won't do no good to call
The police
Always come late
If they come at all

Last night I heard the screaming
Loud voices behind the wall
Another (2)__________________ night for me
It won't do no good to call
The police
Always (3)________ late
If they come at all

And when they arrive
they say they can't interfere
With (4)________________ affairs
Between a man and his wife
And as they walk out the door
The tears (5)________ up in her eyes

Last (6)__________ I (7)__________ the screaming
Then a silence that (8)______________ my soul
Prayed (9)________ I was dreaming
When I saw the ambulance in the road

And the policeman said
'I'm here to keep the peace
Will the crowd disperse
I think we all could use some sleep'

Last night I heard the screaming
Loud voices behind the wall
Another sleepless night for me
It won't do no good to call
The police
Always (10)________ late
If they come at all
