In a deep and dark December;

I am a lone,

Gazing from my window to the streets below

On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.

I am a rock,

I am an is-land.A F#m
A I've built walls, D A A fortress deep and mighty, Bm E D A That none may penetrate. Bm E Bm E I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain. Bm D E It's laughter and it's loving I disdain. A I am a rock, E A I am an is-land.
