I Am a Rock Lyrics

A winters day
In a deep and dark December
I am alone now
Gazing from my window
To the streets below
Ima freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
I am a rock, I am an island
Ive built walls
A fortress deep and mighty
That none may penetrate

I have no need of friendship
Friendship causes pain
Its laughter and its lovin I distain
I am a rock, I am an island
Dont talk of love
Well Ive heard that word before
Its sleeping in my memory
I wont disturb the slumber
Of feelings that have died
If I never loved, I never would of cried
I am a rock, I am an island
I have my books
And my poetry to protect me
I am a shielded in my armor
Hiding in my room
Safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me
I am a rock, I am an island
I am a rock, I am an Island
I am a rock, I am an island
I am a rock, I am an island
And a rock feels no pain
And an island never cries
