Comfortably Numb (Live at Earls Court 20.10.94, London)
Hello [echo], Is there anybody in there? Just nod if you can hear me Is there anyone home? Come on [echo], now I hear you're feeling down Well I can ease your pain, Get you on your feet again Relax (echo), 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 not explain, you would not Understand This is not how I am I have become comfortably numb I have become comfortably numb
Okay (echo), just a little pin prick There be no more [AHHHHhhhhh]... But you may feel a little sick Can you stand up (echo) 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 child I caught a fleeting glimpse Out of the corner of my eye I turned to look but it was gone I can not put my finger on it, now The child is grown, the dream is gone I have become Comfortably numb
