Transience Lyrics - Hand.cannot.erase. - Steven Wilson

Cut through the country, speed through the dark 

A child in a train, tristessa departs 

It's only the start 

Filigree circles round her young wrist 

Her mother is frowning at something she missed 

She fixes her hair 

At the failing of the day she heard her father always say 

"Remember, it's only the start" 

When she drifted off to sleep she had the whole world at her feet 

Because it's only the start
