Comfortably Numb

Hello, is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me
Is there anyone home?

Come on, now
I hear you're feeling down
Well, I can ease your pain
Get you on your feet again

Relax, I need some information first
Just the basic facts
Can you show me where it hurts?

There is no pain, you are receding

A distant ship's smoke on the horizon

You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move, but I can't hear what you're sayìn'
When I was a child, I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons
Now, I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain, you would not understand
This is not how I am

I have become comfortably numb

Okay, just a little pinprick
There'll be no more
But you may feel a little sick

Can you stand up?
I do believe it's working good
That'll keep you going for the show
Come on, it's time to go

There is no pain, you are receding

A distant ship's smoke on the horizon

You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're sayìn'
When I was a child, I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye

I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown, the dream is gone
I have become comfortably numb
