Hello? Is there anybody in there? Just nod if you can hear me Is there anyone at home?
Come on now, I hear you're feeling down 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?
chorus
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
O.K. Just a little pinprick. There'll be no more aaaaaaaah! 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.
