[00:06.95]A winter's day
[00:11.15]In a deep and dark December;
[00:15.74]I am alone,
[00:22.63]Gazing from my window to the streets below
[00:27.79]On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.
[00:31.33]I am a rock,
[00:33.70]I am an island.
[00:44.97]I've built walls,
[00:47.45]A fortress deep and mighty,
[00:53.33]That none may penetrate.
[00:59.95]I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain.
[01:04.67]It's laughter and it's loving I disdain.
[01:08.36]I am a rock,
[01:10.87]I am an island.
[01:21.34]Don't talk of love,
[01:25.68]But I've heard the words before;
[01:30.71]It's sleeping in my memory.
[01:37.32]I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died.
[01:41.37]If I never loved I never would have cried.
[01:45.07]I am a rock,
[01:47.28]I am an island.
[01:58.25]I have my books
[02:02.30]And my poetry to protect me;
[02:08.35]I am shielded in my armor,
[02:14.55]Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
[02:18.28]I touch no one and no one touches me.
[02:21.96]I am a rock,
[02:24.01]I am an island.
[02:31.32]And a rock feels no pain;
[02:34.87]And an island never cries.
