SteemitCentral lyrics Challenge Day 6

Comfortably Numb
by Pink Floyd

Hello?
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me
Is there anyone at home?
Come on, now
I hear you're feeling down
Well I can ease your pain
Get you on your feet again
Relax
I'll 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 the only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
When I was a child I had a fever
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
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 through 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 the only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're 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
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown the dream is gone
I have become comfortably numb

Reflections

From the artist's eyes, it's a song about how he borderline overdosed on some drugs and was brought back to life by a doctor just before a live performance. This was the sequence of dialogue between them.
For me, it's a little more than that. In my eyes, the song talks about how we tend to run away from pain and enclose ourselves in our own tiny bubble inside of our head. It is comfortable there, even though it is numb. We would rather face the numbness than face the pain and sorrow that our lives may inflict upon us. However, that is not the path of growth. Sometimes, we must grit our teeth through the pain and face our fears to see the light of day. And when we have enclosed ourselves in a little bubble like that, it is often our own selves who must act as a friend to help us climb out of it and gently start moving towards growth again. A friend who can do it for you is a blessing to never let go.
