A winters day in a deep and dark December
I am alone gazing from my window to the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
I am a rock, I am an island.
I've built walls, a fortress deep and mighty
That none may penetrate
I have no need of friendship
Friendship causes pain
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain
I am a rock, I am an island.
Don't talk of love
Well, I've heard the word before
It's sleeping in my memory
I won't disturb the slumber
Of feelings that have died
If I'd never loved,
I never would have cried
I am a rock, I am an island
I have my books and my poetry to protect me
I'm shielded in my armour
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.
And a rock feels no pain
And an island never cries...
