 "Comfortably Numb" Lyrics
Pink Floyd



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
And get you on your feet again

Relax
I'll 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 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

I have become comfortably numb

Okay
Just a little pinprick
There'll be no more
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, 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

It's probably one of Pink FLoyd's song I have listened the most: the two guitar solos are just incredible and unforgettable. I even was lucky enough to see David Gilmour during his 2015 tour playing it, what a memory! So thanks a lot for your entry, I would have been disappointed without it. Now of course, playing the guitar with these hands looks tricky ;)

aghhhh .. i'd hate to be him ..
i have recently watched a couple of utube videos of ppl who had rather disastrous medical issues and lost limbs .. one a lady who lost her arms and legs above the kneee to menengitis or something .. the thing is she was extremely positive .. very inspirational ..
hope this guy learns to live without his missing hands .. i doubt the balloons would help him at all .. ;)

What if you would have turned around and made a much tighter crop? Would be more abstract and less posed.
