Snow is on the mountain   Winter settles in my heart   Icy fingers are familiar   Smooth and cold and oh so hard   Comfortably numb      Frost bites deep   Tiny birds fly from my heart   White winds scream   As they leave frozen lands of my heart   Comfortably numb      I watch my hands   To see what it is they do   Their dirty, they don't build churches   They don't take risks and they don't remember you   Comfortably numb      Orion was a mighty warrior   Cleopatra was a cheap french maid   He said sweetheart I give you the moon   She says I much prefer jewelry   So in the stars he stayed   Comfortably numb      Me and jesus, we go way back   Cause we used to hang at the mall   He says you can't trust them   They'll just put holes in your hands   So I covered him while he stole a bottle of cheap cologne   Comfortably numb   Lord, forbid, care crawled up my arm   And I killed it right on the spot   For fear it might tear out of my heart   And make me love what I do not   Comfortably   Comfortably   Comfortably numb      Transcribed by adam longfellow
