Comfortably Numb Songtext
von Luther Wright & the Wrongs

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

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
