The sun shines in a purple haze
Upon my once beautiful face. Dreams lay
Dead, my glazed eyes lost in a maze
The sunset will comfort me at the close of day.

Love is pain, love is splendour in the grass
Love is passion, love is desire, love is amour
No matter what, all things will come to pass
The serpent will tempt - the fruit will be sour.

I will reach out to touch the sunset's glow,
In the evening soft music will play
Mahler's symphony No 5, oh so slow...
Comfortably Numb, my body will sway.

We will love many times before our demise
Though many dreams are dead, we are alive
We will go on and on. Like the Phoenix, we will rise
We make love, we make war - somehow we survive.

They are not long, the days of wine and roses
In my strange nether world existence
I feel "Comfortably Numb".
