Scissor Sisters - Comfortably Numb Lyrics






Hello (hello)
Hello (hello)
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can here me
Is there anybody home?

Come on now
I hear you're feeling down
Well I can ease your pain
And get you on your feet again
Relax...
I need some information.. first (first)
Relax..
Just don't face the facts
Can you show me where it hurts

[Chorus 1]
There is no pain you were receding
A distant ship floats on the horizon
You're only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear watcha saying
When I was a child I caught a fever
My hands swelled like two balloons
Now i've got that feeling once again
I can't explain
You would not understand
This isn't how I am
I have become comfortably numb

Ok (ok)
It's just a little pin-prick
There'll be no more Hiiiiiiiiiii
But you may feel a little sick
Can you stand up now
I do believe It's working
(uh huh) (uh huh)

Gotta keep it going through the show
C'mon it's time to go [Repeat x4]

[Chorus 2]
There is no pain you were receding
A distant ship floats on the horizon
You're only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear watcha saying
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
To get up on my feet but ohh the child has grown
The dream is gone
I..i..i've been Com-com-fortably Numb
I..i..i've been Com-com-fortably Numb

[Repeat Chrous Till Fade]

Scissor Sisters Comfortably Numb Comments
  1. A.... d....

    Who wouldn't want to get a bit high with the sisters in the room ?

  2. G.... W....

    Their first album was the dbs

  3. M.... H....

    Shit... 😡😡😡 write your own songs and dont knick pink Floyd's!

  4. a.... ....

    This is one of the best covers ever. I like it so much more than the Pink Floyd version

  5. S.... S....

    ⭕️💫🌟🌝🌍💥🥀🦨🌹

  6. B.... ....

    It's OK but I still prefer the PF original.

  7. D.... S....

    Good lord..please make it stop.

  8. S.... t....

    Banging tunes all you haters 😂

  9. P.... P....

    i prefer this version better than pink Floyd

  10. M.... W....

    A cover isn’t about creating a replica of a song it’s about taking a classic and making it your own. This is funky. I like it

  11. N.... M....

    When this came out my flatmate was deeply offended, vociferously so. He tried to convince me it was an abomination, but never hearing the original (my parents didnt listen to pink floyd, although im never sure why), i had no stong opinion.
    Over the coming weeks he mellowed and came to love it as its own unique version of a much cherished song, and would choose to play it for his own enjoyment.
    I have great respect for anyone who can open their minds and admit they were wrong.

  12. C.... Y....

    🤢🤮

  13. C.... ....

    It's like NIN's e Cash's Hurt.
    Both are the same songs, but arranged differently, sung differently, the cover gained another whole meaning, but it doesn't mean it's bad.

  14. S.... S....

    well i lasted 18 secs, ENOUGH

  15. f.... ....

    Pink Floyd in stile Bee Gees

  16. D.... R....

    i like the music but the vocals are god awful.

  17. a.... l....

    Still as good as ever where you gone scissors

  18. L.... B....

    we must remember this cover forever

  19. �.... �....

    זוועה

  20. D.... I....

    "Barf" was his name.

  21. I.... C....

    Argentina 2019

  22. P.... P....

    Che poi l’inizio sembra run like hell

  23. T.... V....

    Worst cover ever.

  24. T.... H....

    There are actually more comments on here saying you should like both than people saying this is shit.

  25. D.... C....

    One of the best cover ever, love it!!!

  26. M.... A....

    I like so much Pink Floyd.. but... sorry! this version is so cool!!

  27. J.... J....

    Only thing straight about this album was the straight up motherfucking bangers

  28. S.... G....

    All the people going on about 'why not love both' or 'just listen to the original', when this song would be pure wank with or without its history

  29. M.... S....

    ZIP FM :D

  30. T.... F....

    heard this on the radio and i was in stitches

  31. H.... D....

    Pure cancer

    H.... D....

    get your head out your ass man

  32. S.... S....

    The absolute shitiest cover version of a good song that I've ever heard. I don't understand how this group got any airplay, anywhere, ever. Just the pits.

  33. J.... F....

    FFS stop it!

  34. D.... H....

    What’s great is that Pink Floyd themselves like this cover. Shows that all covers are not bad, just most of them😉

  35. B.... ....

    I though this was bad but then I saw Nostalgia Critic's The Wall

  36. J.... j....

    What a shit...

  37. L.... E....

    Streuth!!!!

  38. C.... F....

    Un vrai massacre , bref, c'est à chier

  39. d.... s....

    so it works .Nobody is turning over in their graves.What the hell were they thinking,never tamper with black and try to turn it into light,never should Elton john and pink Floyd collide ,why should they either,keep the music apart for the benefit of all good music lovers

  40. S.... S....

    Thank you SIS

  41. S.... S....

    So like David Bowie

  42. S.... S....

    Thank you ! Awesome remix of Pink Floyd. I’m sure they must love it as much as I do...there is no I in We...

  43. A.... ....

    Nothing is better than original...interesting yes but never better...prick up your ears, maybe videos emphasis the story meaning, but the original is always yes always best...😻

  44. A.... ....

    What does Dave or Roger think lol ....😻🌟💫✨well they must know given an OK to record this but still...what the..., I think it's quite good accepted yes interesting.....lol..😻

  45. A.... ....

    Punk Floyd, Daft Pink, Bee Floyd, Pink Gees... Only Bee Gee left Barry wouldn't be approved, check out Clive Anderson Bee Gee interview lol.....rattle out of pram incident..lol

  46. E.... V....

    Два кольца, два конца, а посередине гвоздик.

  47. E.... J....

    I'll be honest and say I didn't even realise this *was* a cover! 😂 (and yes, I know the Pink Floyd original).

    E.... J....

    ............. what? How can you not know this is a cover if you've heard the original.........XD

    E.... J....

    Spooder- man
    Lol....😻✨🌟💫

  48. t.... ....

    This cover makes me think of Klaus from The Umbrella Academy.

  49. P.... P....

    As if FDavid Byrne dance under the moonlight, the serious moonlight

  50. C.... S....

    Great version

  51. G.... ....

    Holy shit this is terrible

  52. D.... G....

    Got to be one of the worst covers ever 2nd only to I love rock and roll by Britney spears

  53. A.... B....

    What makes me chuckle is the arseclown haters who hate on this quirky electropop cover in 2019 as if it came out perhaps a couple of months ago. FFS it is fifteen years old and nearing classic status in its own right.


    Accepting things that are not the same but different could be a metaphor for life itself in the same way as accepting the Breslev brothers are not Pink Floyd themselves but still can play excellent music really, really well.


    Stop moaning, life is too short and we do not get an return ticket to do it all again.

  54. G.... 1....

    You just ruined comfortably numb.U idiot shameful Newbie singer

  55. S.... S....

    Is that a song or a kind of shit?

  56. S.... ....

    Love it. If you're gonna do a cover make it different.

  57. M.... V....

    Que porqueria es esta!!!!! ????

  58. M.... ....

    Better than original!! Hahaha

  59. M.... F....

    Also a tiny taste of...*Night Fever* (Saturday Night Fever)... @ 3:00
    Love this Group, always have, always will!

  60. s.... l....

    As divisive as Brexit.

  61. r.... ....

    no, sorry, i hate this version, how could you have done that with this so beautiful song ?

  62. J.... A....

    Such a good tune. Better than original version in my honest opinion. (Sorry Floyd fans!)

  63. G.... M....

    🙌🏾💃🏾💃🏾

  64. S.... M....

    Doesn't really work for me, but an interesting take nonetheless (huge fan of both bands).

  65. M.... ....

    at 1.75 speed is even better

  66. M.... P....

    Roger Waters himself reportedly told he LOVES this cover, so just shup up with arguments and comparisons. 😎

  67. U.... J....

    How do they hold their breath for over 2 mins ?????

  68. M.... ....

    porco dio cane

  69. S.... ....

    Pick a milhoooooo

  70. S.... ....

    Die hard Pink Floyd fans are just gonna have to live with the fact that I like this song 🙃

    S.... ....

    @Ceno Bite I never really listened to her songs. Are they any good?

  71. t.... r....

    Amo a los scissor pero este cover no me gustó

  72. f.... ....

    Sounds like Bee Gees :)

  73. B.... d....

    This one appeared on my Discover Weekly list on spotify. I was appalled. Never heard such a bad cover as this one. True, it's original but it is in no way representative of the meaning of the song and musically it is a very simple electronic up-tempo kids version. I'm not against covers but they, on the contrary. I once heard a cover of another Pink Floyd song but I can't remember which one so cannot refer to that one.

    B.... d....

    but Pink Floyd said that they like this cover !

  74. J.... E....

    This is goddamn awful

  75. S.... ....

    Coma hanno fatto a stuprare Confortably Numb?

  76. F.... B....

    It is said on Wikipedia about the Comfortably Numb song that Pink Floyd contacted them to congrats them for their cover. Personnaly I'm not a fan of it...

  77. L.... S....

    0.75x speed is so fun

  78. K.... W....

    Top! 😍

  79. R.... V....

    Como diria o Lobão: Aaaaaa.. Vá tomar no cu, rapah!!!!!

  80. B.... S....

    Sometimes you just gotta keep the gay to yourself.

    B.... S....

    @yellowllama because it results in terrible covers like this. The gulf in talent between these jokers and Pink Floyd is astronomical

  81. M.... ....

    Excuse me, but this is a piece of crap...

  82. S.... R....

    david gilmour...please forvgive this band...

  83. N.... R....

    How to destroy the magic

  84. G.... C....

    Fa vomitare i bidoni fradici

  85. T.... A....

    Omg this is so bad. Ridiculous

  86. D.... H....

    Euthanasia !!!!!!!!!

  87. N.... N....

    Why do women have to destroy everything decent

  88. K.... J....

    This is one of the best covers ever 💖

  89. n.... b....

    I love Scissor Sisters and Pink Floyd and I think this cover is amazing

  90. T.... P....

    I don't find the right words, I can only say: thank you to these artists for this present to ... our souls,,,

  91. g.... d....

    insulting

  92. D.... ....

    0:42 Relax... don't do it!

  93. M.... J....

    2019. I’m still loving this...

    M.... J....

    I was going to prison in the sweet box listening to this and I was still singing lol

  94. T.... G....

    Truly speaking, from the depth of my heart, a cover needs not be an exact copy of original. But this song needs a slow pace. So all guys who said that this song helped ease your mind, please try to learn english, in case you don't. If you do know english , then get a doctor/a therapist. Your brain fails to connect words and emotions properly. The lyrics says he has become comfortably numb, it is not flash singing comfortably fast, why did they fuck up the speed. Sorry for being insensitive, but this song has been insensitive to me too. I liked to slowly submerge and get numb in the darkness as a kid, enjoying loneliness and these fucktards have destroyed that imagery. So shower the hate but I hate these guys.

  95. c.... ....

    I listened this version before the song of Pink Floyd, and it took me so many years to realize that it was the same song. (English is not my native language).
