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 vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I (2)____________ alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And (3)______________ the sound of silence
And in the (4)__________ light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing (5)______________ listening
People writing 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 words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you."
But my words, like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed In the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the (6)________ god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words (7)________ it was forming
And the sign (8)__________ "The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls,
And whispered in the sounds of silence."
