I'm also reminded if "I am a rock" by Simon and Garfunkel. Last two stanzas:

    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
