Sounds 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 (1)__________ while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In (2)________________ dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the (3)________ of a (4)____________ lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes (5)________ stabbed by the (6)__________ of a (7)________ light
That split the night
And (8)______________ the (9)__________ of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People (10)______________ (11)______________ listening
People (12)______________ (13)__________ that (14)____________ never share
And no one dared
Disturb the (15)__________ of silence
"Fools", said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows."
"Hear my words that I (16)__________ teach you,
Take my arms that I (17)__________ reach you."
But my words, (18)________ (19)____________ raindrops fell,
And echoed In the wells of silence
And the people (20)__________ and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words (21)________ it was forming
And the sign said: "The (22)__________ of the prophets
Are (23)______________ on the (24)____________ walls
And tenement halls,
And (25)__________________ in the sounds of silence."
