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.
Okay. 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.
FRIENDS ONLY. YOU DO NOT NEED TO COMMENT. IN FACT, COMMENTS ANNOY ME. PLEASE, JUST ADD ME. I PROMISE I WILL ADD YOU BACK.
