Comfortably Numb Lyrics

Hello
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me
Is there anyone at home?
Come on, now
I hear you’re feeling down
Well, i can ease the pain
And 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 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
I have become comfortably numb

Ok
Just a little pinprick
There’ll be no more –aaaaaahhhhh!
But you may feel a little sick
Can you stand up?
I do believe it’s working, good
That’ll keep you going through 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 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
I have become comfortably numb
