Raise your glasses – drink me a toast,
absent friends are here.

All my love and best wishes to the hosts,
may your dreams never clear.

Light the candle – cut the cake.
Turn failure into fate.
Don’t make the same mistake – cause if you do

then you’ll know what it’s like to be someone they never knew
and you’ll see that I loved you.

I’ll raise a smile – drink you a toast
but it makes me sad.

So raise your glasses and have one on me – 
you always had.

And don’t play songs like you used to do
with meanings that aren’t true,
songs they’ll see right through – cause if you do

then you’ll know what it’s like to be someone they never knew
and you’ll see that I loved you.

I loved you.

Playing With Dolls

Sweet Little Sad Song

Opening track from new ep 'The Notorious J.U.G.'
