Comfortably Numb Lyrics
Howdy, hey
Is there anybody in there?
Nod if you can hear me
Is there anybody at home?
Come on, now, I hear you're feeling down
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 smoke on the horizon
You're only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're sayin'
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, ah, but you might feel a little sick
Can you stand up? I do believe it's working good
That'll keep you going through the show, well, come on, it's time to go
Is there anybody in there?
Nod if you can hear me
Is there anybody at home?
Come on, now, I hear you're feeling down
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 smoke on the horizon
You're only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're sayin'
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, ah, but you might feel a little sick
Can you stand up? I do believe it's working good
That'll keep you going through the show, well, come on, it's time to go
There is no pain, you are receding
A distant ship smoke on the horizon
You're only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're sayin'
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
And I have become comfortably numb
A distant ship smoke on the horizon
You're only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're sayin'
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
And I have become comfortably numb
