Comfortably Numb

You are the only coming through in waves
Now I've got that feeling once again
When I was a child I had a fever
Just the basic facts
I have become comfortably numb
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
Get you on your feet again
A distant ship's smoke on the horizon
Can you show me where it hurts?

Can you stand up?

I turned to look but it was gone

Relax
There is no pain you are receding
But you may feel a little sick

Is there anyone at home?

There'll be no more
That'll keep you going through the show
I'll need some information first
My hands felt just like two balloons
This is not how I am
Just nod if you can hear me
Come on it's time to go
Come on, now
You are the only coming through in waves
Okay
Well I can ease your pain
Just a little pinprick
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
I hear you're feeling down
A distant ship's smoke on the horizon

I do believe it's working good
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown the dream is gone
I can't explain you would not understand
There is no pain you are receding

When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse

Out of the corner of my eye

I have become comfortably numb
