The story behind the song

"Comfortably Numb" captures the feeling of being medicated and detached from reality, a state experienced by the rock star character Pink in the album The Wall. The lyrics were inspired by Roger Waters' own experience of being injected with tranquilizers before a performance, leaving him barely able to move. David Gilmour composed the music, originally as a wordless demo, and the song's creation involved a compromise between his and Waters' differing musical visions. It embodies a sense of distant observation, as if watching the world through a haze.
