When my (6)________ were stabbed

And in the naked light I saw
Ten (8)________________ people, maybe more
People (9)______________ (10)______________ speaking
People (11)______________ (12)______________ listening
People writing songs (13)________ (14)____________ never share...
And no one dare
Disturb the sound of silence.

Fools, (15)________ I, you do not know

Hear my words (16)________ I might teach you,
Take my arms (17)________ I might reach you.
But my (18)__________ like (19)____________ raindrops fell,
And echoed in the (20)__________ of silence.

And the people bowed and prayed

And the signs said: The words of the prophets
Are written on the (23)____________ walls
And (24)________________ halls,
And whisper'd in the (25)__________ of silence.
