Ani Difranco - Comfortably Numb Lyrics

[Verse 1: Dar Williams]
Hello
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me
Is there anyone home?

[Verse 2: Dar Williams]
Come on now
I hear you're feeling down
Well, I can ease your pain
Get you on your feet again

[Verse 3: Dar Williams]
Relax
I need some information first
Just the basic facts
Can you show me where it hurts?

[Chorus: Dar Williams & Ani DiFranco, Dar Williams, Ani DiFranco]
There is no pain, you are receding (There is no pain)
A distant ship's smoke on the horizon (A distant ship)
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 4: Dar Williams & Ani DiFranco, Dar Williams]
Okay
It's just a little pinprick
There'll be no more ah-ha-ha
But you may feel a little sick

[Verse 5: Dar Williams & Ani DiFranco, Dar Williams]
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: Dar Williams & Ani DiFranco, Dar Williams, Ani DiFranco]
There is no pain, you are receding (There is no pain)
A distant ship's smoke on the horizon (A distant ship)
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: Dar Williams & Ani DiFranco]
I (I-I, I-I)
I (I-I-I)
I, I (I-I-I-I)
(I-I-I)
I, I (I-I, I-I)
I
