{Music} "I am a Rock" by Simon and Garfunkel



This catchy song won't get out of my head. If you've never listened to Simon and Garfunkel, you're missing out. This particular song is great when you're feeling kinda lost or reclusive. It's also a great song if you just like good music ;) #repeatrepeat






"I am Rock (I am an island)" lyrics

A winter's 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, 

But I've heard the words before; 
It's sleeping in my memory. 
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died. 
If I 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 am 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. 



And a rock feels no pain; 

And an island never cries.
