Comfortably Numb


Recently, I have been mesmerized by the songs of Pink Floyd. Particularly the song Comfortably Numb, it is by far the best i have listened. The lyrics are haunting, so is the music. It speaks to me in a very emotional way. It's like times in life, the pressure keeps on piling. Initially you feel vexed, irritated, annoyed and pissed. But as days passes with those feelings continue to harbor. You don't know how to lose it except to endure. And eventually it forges themselves well within you and as a result you have become Comfortably Numb. You are all but shutdown; emotionally shut. In layman terms: emotional suicide.

In the end, you are just a mere human being without emotions, comfortably numb to the world around you.
