The Sound Of Silence by Disturbed

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 (1)____________ that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the (2)__________ of silence

In restless dreams I walked 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 (3)__________ the night
And touched the sound of silence

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices (4)__________ share
And no one dared
Disturb the (5)__________ 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 neon god (6)________ made
And the sign (7)______________ out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, the (8)__________ of the prophets are written on the (9)____________ walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sounds of silence
