The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel

Hello, darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with 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 walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
Beneath the halo of a (1)____________ lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes (2)________ stabbed
By the (3)__________ of a neon light
That (4)__________ the night
And touched the sound of silence

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking (5)______________ speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing (6)__________ that voices never share...
And no one dare
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 (7)________ that I might reach you.
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed in the (8)__________ of silence.

And the people bowed and prayed
To the (9)________ god they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming.
And the signs said: The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls,
And whisper'd in the sound of silence.
