A Pack of Cigarettes

I am sitting to watch the sky of others’ through another man’s pane
And I cannot recognize any star that I know
I had traveled all the roads that had come my way
I looked back and couldn’t find any footprints though
 
But if your pocket holds a pack of cigarettes
That means nothing is that bad at least as far as today
If you have an air-ticket to a silver-winged jet
Which leaves nothing but a trace as it flies away
 
And no one wanted blame put on the grape wine* with ease
And no one was much willing to be made a cat’s paw
And no music- no fun to die hard at all
Without music I don’t want to even rest in peace
 
But if your pocket holds a pack of cigarettes
That means nothing is that bad at least as far as today
If you have an air-ticket to a silver-winged jet
Which leaves nothing but a trace as it flies away

Спасибо, Соня, on my last legs перед окончанием года еще пытаюсь что-то переводить. Спасибо за поддержку. :)

Thank you, Alex. I hope you'll also enjoy US National Anthem. Works out amazingly well when sung to music. :)

Well, there's a better way to perform the trick:
No one wanted to be blamed without the sauce (instead of the obvious "cause")
This fits perfectly preserving the meaning.

Guys, sorry, I didn't get notified that you'd left your comments. About the Chestnuts. I think the meaning is different "No one wanted to be used as pawns" rather than profiteer from the situation. As for "grape wine", I wanted to emphasize the idea of slander and rumours.
