Comfortably Numb
Gilmour/Waters
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
sayin'.
When I was a child I had a fever.
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I got that feeling once again.
I
can't explain, you would not understand.
This is not how I am.
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 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
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.
