Sounds 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 seeds while I was sleeping
And the (2)____________ that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless (3)____________ I walked alone
Narrow (4)______________ of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the (5)________ and damp
When my eyes (6)________ stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That (7)__________ the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked (8)__________ I saw
Ten thousand people, (9)__________ more
People (10)______________ (11)______________ speaking
People hearing without listening
People (12)______________ songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools", said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows."
"Hear my (13)__________ that I might teach you,
Take my (14)________ (15)________ I might reach you."
But my words, (16)________ silent raindrops fell,
And echoed In the wells of silence
And the (17)____________ (18)__________ and prayed
To the (19)________ god they made
And the sign (20)______________ out its warning
In the (21)__________ that it was forming
And the (22)________ said: "The words of the prophets
Are written on the (23)____________ walls
And tenement halls,
And whispered in the (24)____________ of silence."
