Slow for Me, My Island Songtext
von Dappled Cities

Hopefully my island will be the one I wanted it to be
Built around virgin milestones to be the one I wanted it to be

Sounds that I have learnt
Sound that I recall but I′ve never heard
Write for me my biography
To tell the things I never got to be


Simple things like Islands
Simple things like feeling safe with me
While most of this was silent o
Most of it was slow for me

Building up my island saves me from idle mistakes
Being gay for celebration saves me from this disappearing trace
And I used to wake up and be disappointed
That all the things I wanted to be
Were slow for me and my island
But stay true in your bandaged way
