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 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's smoke on the horizon You are 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 got that feeling once again I can't explain, you would not understand This is not how I am I have become comfortably numb
Ok 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 for the show
Come on it's time to go
There is no pain, you are receding A distant ship's smoke on the horizon You are 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 I have become comfortably numb
