The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel

Hello, darkness, my old friend
I've (1)________ to talk (2)________ you again
Because a vision (3)____________ 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 (5)________________ dreams I (6)____________ alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
Beneath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my (7)________ were stabbed
By the (8)__________ of a neon light
That split the night
And (9)______________ the sound of silence

And in the (10)__________ (11)__________ I saw
Ten (12)________________ people, maybe more
People (13)______________ (14)______________ speaking
People hearing without listening
People (15)______________ songs (16)________ voices never share...
And no one dare
Disturb the sound of silence.

Fools, said I, you do not know
Silence like a (17)____________ grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I (18)__________ reach you.
But my words (19)________ (20)____________ raindrops fell,
And echoed in the (21)__________ of silence.

And the (22)____________ bowed and prayed
To the neon god (23)________ made.
And the (24)________ flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming.
And the signs (25)__________ The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls,
And whisper'd in the sound of silence.
