letra de no trace no blame - armando iaccarino

they said he stayed out late at the bar
cheap cologne and a half-lit cigar
his ring left cold on the backseat floor
and a secret n0body’s asking for
her sister called her at 12:09
voice like whiskey, fear in the line
said, “if i don’t make it back by dawn
look for me where the cheap lights are on…”

no trace, no blame
just a crooked little smile
a red kiss print on an empty glass
and guilt stitched tight in a cotton plaid
no trace, no blame
she learned to lie with a steady eye
he swears he don’t know where she lies

detective stares through the kitchen steam
she stirs cold coffee and half a dream
says she don’t swim in no muddy tide
got nothing to hide but a sharpened pride
mothers whisper down neon roads
small town secrets and late-night oaths
if they come knocking at the station door
she’s gone and she don’t live here no more
no trace, no blame
just a crooked little smile
a red kiss print on an empty glass
and guilt stitched tight in a cotton plaid
no trace, no blame
she learned to lie with a steady eye
he swears he don’t know where she lies

when they drag the lake at the break of dawn
all they’ll find is a ghost and a song
no confession, no tear to dry
just a name crossed out on a lullaby
no trace, no blame
just laughter under the rain
a rumor tangled in windowpanes
and lipstick sealing what won’t remain
no trace, no blame
just her glass left high and dry
a toast for what she’ll never deny
