Comfortably Dumb ©2026 by ContempoJedi [VERSE 1] I don’t read past headlines anymore They say enough, what’s truth for? There’s comfort in a narrowed view A world that’s small and always true (Always true!) I traded doubt for something warm A steady voice inside the storm It tells me who to blame at night And wraps my fear in simple light (Simple light!) [PRE-CHORUS] No graphs, no footnotes, no grey Just black and white, the easy way (Easy way! Easy way!) [CHORUS] I’m comfortably dumb Wrapped in the hum Of someone else’s certainty I don’t need proof I just need truth That sounds like it agrees with me I’m comfortably... dumb. (Hey!) [INSTRUMENTAL SOLO] [BRIDGE] If I let the silence break I might hear what I helped make Every echo that I chose Built the walls that hold me close It wasn’t noise - it was my hand Striking sparks I didn’t understand And truth, the thing I pushed aside, Is patient. It does not hide. (It does not hide!) [FINAL CHORUS] I’m comfortably dumb Wrapped in the hum Of someone else’s certainty I don’t need proof I just need truth That doesn’t look too hard at me I’m comfortably… …dumb. (Hey!) [OUTRO] I’m comfortably… dumb. (Hey!) I’m comfortably… dumb. (Hey!) I’m comfortably… dumb. (Hey!) Are you? [End]
