The Sound Of Silence by Disturbed

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision (1)____________ 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 (2)____________ 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 split 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 (3)__________ that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence

Fools, said I, you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might (4)__________ you
Take my arms that I (5)__________ (6)__________ you
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence

And the people (7)__________ and prayed
To the (8)________ god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And (9)________________ halls
And (10)__________________ in the sounds of silence
