[Verse 1] 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? [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] Okay It's just a little pinprick There'll be no more ah-ha-ha 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 [Chorus] 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 [Outro] I, I-I-I-I I, I-I-I-I I, I-I-I-I I, I-I-I-I
