Traces

Bring on the invite
Bring on all the wine
Take me on a thrilling ride
Against your own advice

I'm clearing up my doubts
Pretending I've cooled down
I whispered my apologies
But no one turned around

If I cannot hide
I'm erasing my traces
If I'm out of lies
I keep my big mouth shut
If I cannot hide
I'm erasing my traces
Erasing my traces

I'm doing it myself
Without being compelled
I don't live a selfish life
There are measures that apply

I think I'm in control
I'm out but on parole
Leaving bad luck safe at home
'Cause it never comes alone

If I cannot hide
I'm erasing my traces
If I'm out of lies
I keep my big mouth shut
If I cannot hide
I'm erasing my traces
Erasing my traces

I burnt the evidence
And although I need some help
Goodwill's my best defense

I bought myself some time
To be keeping up the fight
So I can hold the line
