Get you on (4)________ (5)________ again.

Relax.
I (6)________ some information first.
Just the basic facts:
Can you (7)________ me (8)__________ it hurts?

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ship smoke on the horizon.
You are only (9)____________ through in waves.
Your (10)________ move but I can’t hear what you’re sayin’.
When I was a child I had a fever.
My hands (11)________ (12)________ like two balloons.
Now I got (13)________ feeling (14)________ again.

This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.

You are only coming (19)______________ in waves.
Your lips (20)________ but I can’t hear what you’re sayin’.
When I was a child I (21)____________ a (22)________________ glimpse,
Out of the corner of my eye.

I cannot put my finger on it now.
The child is grown, the dream is gone.
I (25)________ become (26)______________________ numb.
