Comfortably Numb

-




How did I get here?

Sitting on this spinning sphere

When will I leave here

We know death is always near

I try to understand but answers don't come easily

Friends always deceiving me

Is this what life's supposed to be?

Human animals

We roam the earth in search of blood

Hope for humanity?

I don't think there ever was

We're in perpetual war, and that's the only law

Can I change it? I doubt it

So I write songs about it

I was young once but now I've grown old

Right in front of your еyes you've seen my life unfold

I had no choicе as I became the underdog's voice

A young black kid... look what the fuck I did!

When I'm gone there'll be someone to carry on

We can give in, give up, or we can stay strong

How accepting of the bullshit we've all become

This whole world is... comfortably numb


Hello... is anybody out there?

Can anybody hear me?

Hello... is anybody out there?

Can anybody hear me?


You've got a TV, a computer, so you don't care

A roof, some clothes, some food

That's right, it's all there

Lock yourself in your house, try to forget about

The millions dyin' from wars, starvation and drought

You've got your own problems - yes, we all do

Nobody is free from stress, not him, or me, or you

But still we judge each other, we want to pick a fight

In the streets we kill each other, each and every weeknight

I don't want no drama but I carry a gun

I don't want no problems but they'll probably come

So we get high to wash away the pain

Self-medication, but that shit is all done in vain

We think that we can hide away from the misery

You can close your eyes but still can plainly see

There's nowhere to run...

You're just comfortably numb


Hello... is anybody out there?

Can anybody hear me?

Hello... is anybody out there?

Can anybody hear me?

I spent half my life just trying to survive

And the other half trying to keep you all alive

For some reason I still care

I've done my dirt

It's amazing that i'm still here

There's true evil out there, I've been trying to warn you

You could meet the devil himself, then what you gonna do?

No time to pray, no chance to run

Listen... 'cause I've been on both sides of the gun

As you stand before me we're all here as one

We gotta come together or our chances are none

Maybe I'm just a dreamer, too many obstacles

The though of humans coexisting, that's impossible

Better to stay numb, live in denial

We're all going to hell and we did it to ourselves

Too much religious beef, too much racist shit

And if there is a God we probably make him sick


Hello... is anybody out there?

Can anybody hear me?

Hello... is anybody out there?

In the intriguing world of MasterChef (Malta), the spotlight not only shines on culinary talents but also reveals the complexities that unfold behind the scenes. Photos 89.7 Bay Radio Amidst the sizzling kitchen drama, a familial twist emerges as Pia Pellegrini Petit and her mother, Mireille Pellegrini Petit, take center stage. While it's not uncommon for family members to spice up reality shows, the plot thickens with the revelation that the Pellegrini Petits are directly linked to one of MasterChef's main sponsors – Attard & Co.

Hiccups Pub Paceville- still the best burger you could ever have had...but luckily you still can have...

Since the dawn of time, mankind has been searching...searching for something more. Ever since the first homo-sapiens pushed a mammoth over a cliff; feasted on its widely dispersed remains and decided that it was a pretty good meal; we've been on the road to culinary improvement. Much later a German, let's call him Helmut, fried up a bit of mince, slapped it between two buns and changed the course of history. Helmut didn't realise it at the time, but he had just invented the burger. But mankind wasn't satisfied with the burger. No, man is never satisfied.  Since that day we have continued to improve, refine, enhance and augment. We have continued to experiment and explore, to add pickles and fried onions, to push the burger boundaries. As most of my readers know I am fascinated about food but some days I feel like having some less sophisticated stuff and when it comes to burgers(especially if you do have a large appetite) The King Of Homemade hea...
