Comfortably Numb

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Roger Waters] Hello? (Hello, hello) Is there anybody in there? Just nod if you can hear me Is there anyone at home? [Verse 2: Roger Waters] Come on (Come on) now I hear you're feeling down Well, I can ease your pain And get you on your feet again [Verse 3: Roger Waters] Relax I'll need some information first Just the basic facts Can you show me where it hurts? [Chorus: Van Morrison] There is no pain, you are receding A distant ship, smoke on the horizon You are only coming through in waves Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying 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 [Guitar Solo] [Chorus: Van Morrison] I have become comfortably numb [Verse 4: Roger Waters] Okay (Okay, okay, okay) Just a little pinprick There'll be no more aaaaaaaaah! But you may feel a little sick [Verse 5: Roger Waters] Can you stand up? (Stand up, stand up) I do believe it's working, good That'll keep you going through the show Come on, it's time to go [Chorus: Van Morrison] There is no pain, you are receding A distant ship, smoke on the horizon You are only coming through in waves Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying 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 [Guitar Solos] [Chorus: Van Morrison] There is no pain, you are receding A distant ship, smoke on the horizon You are only coming through in waves Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying 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
