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