The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel
Hello, darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk (1)________ you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its (2)__________ (3)__________ I was sleeping
And the vision
That was (4)______________ in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In (5)________________ dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
Beneath the (6)________ of a (7)____________ lamp
I turned my collar to the (8)________ and damp
When my eyes were stabbed
By the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And (9)______________ the sound of silence
And in the naked (10)__________ I saw
Ten (11)________________ people, maybe more
People talking (12)______________ speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing (13)__________ that (14)____________ never share...
And no one dare
Disturb the (15)__________ of silence.
Fools, said I, you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words (16)________ I might (17)__________ you,
Take my arms that I (18)__________ (19)__________ you.
But my words like (20)____________ (21)__________________ fell,
And echoed in the wells of silence.
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made.
And the (22)________ flashed out its warning
In the words (23)________ it was forming.
And the signs (24)__________ The words of the prophets
Are written on the (25)____________ walls
And tenement halls,
And whisper'd in the sound of silence.
