Lyrics
COMFORTABLY NUMB
Copyright 2026 Diana Rasmussen
[verse]
I'm at my piano staring at the keys
Waiting for them to start talking to me
the place where my emotions find their voice
and the melodies become timeless echoes
[chorus]
I feel like I'm frozen in time
And like I am losing my mind
I am wrapped up in fear
From the bad news I hear
The silence is deafening
While my mind is screaming inside
I just can't cope right now
Sitting here, comfortably numb, comfortably numb
[verse]
When I'm afraid I put my trust in You
Especially when I'm feeling the blues
I will pour my heart out to You alone
Lord lift my head and fill me with hope again
[chorus]
I feel like I'm frozen in time
And like I am losing my mind
I am wrapped up in fear
From the bad news I hear
The silence is deafening
While my mind is screaming inside
I just can't cope right now
Sitting here, comfortably numb, comfortably numb
[bridge]
I'll find the music in the silence
It will be the mirror to my soul
I'm tired of sitting here, comfortably numb
[chorus]
I feel like I'm frozen in time
And like I am losing my mind
I am wrapped up in fear
From the bad news I hear
The silence is deafening
While my mind is screaming inside
I just can't cope right now
Sitting here, comfortably numb, comfortably numb
