Lyrics

I've got remnants of December
Sticking to my sleeves
In among the dirty feathers
Head-dressing my heart with ease

It's a kind of transformation
Might just set me free

I've got vestigial wings

Made a run for the red light
Instead of a walk
There must be something still in me
Though I'm talking the talk

Some kind of dirty fevour
Hanging on beneath

I've got vestigial wings

So abide by this, abide by me
And sift through sweet uncertainty
Abide by this, abide by me
How long d'you think's in eternity
How long d'you think's in eternity
We'll see
Oh we'll see

I'm sharpening something
Still there's no point yet found
So I'm dancing with collision course
And tasting the ground

Not finding a reason
Causation or cure
Blade duller than dusk
And the things you assume

There's a feeling more filling
Than short dives deep down

I've got vestigial wings
