“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.

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.”

-Comfortably Numb, Pink Floyd

Together we stand, divided we fall.”

Is there anybody out there?
Is there anybody out there?”

Tight as a tourniquet,
Dry as a funeral drum.”

Take off this uniform and leave the show,
But I'm waiting here in this cell because I have to know,
Have I been guilty all this time?”

And dealing in death is the nature of the beast.”

Prepared to make it but just then the phone rang
I never had the nerve to make the final cut.”

“If you should go skating
On the thin ice of modern life
Dragging behind you the silent reproach
Of a million tear-stained eyes
Don't be surprised when a crack in the ice
Appears under your feet.
You slip out of your depth and out of your mind
With your fear flowing out behind you
As you claw the thin ice.”

-The Thin Ice, Pink Floyd

~

“And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war
for a lead role in a cage?”

-Wish You Were Here, Pink Floyd

~

“We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.”

-Wish You Were Here, Pink Floyd
