I Am a Rock
[Verse 1]
A winter's day
In a deep and dark December
I am alone
Gazing from my window
To the streets below
On freshly fallen silence shroud of snow

[Chorus]
I am a rock
I am an island

[Verse 2]
I built walls
A fortress deep and mighty
That none may penetrate
I have no need for friendship
Friendship causes pain
It's laughter and it's love that I disdain

[Chorus]
I am a rock
I am an island
[Verse 3]
Don't talk of love
I've heard the word before
It's sleeping in my memory
I won't disturb the slumber
Of feelings that'll die
If I've never loved and I never would've cried

[Chorus]
I am a rock
I am an island

[Verse 4]
I have my books
And my poetry to protect me
I'm shielded in my armor
Hiding in my room
Safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me

[Chorus]
I am a rock
I am an island

[Outro]
And a rock feels no pain
And an island never cries
