[Spoken:]
Small, simple, safe price
Rise the wake and carry me with all of my regrets
This is not a small cut that scabs, and dries, and flakes, and heals
And I am not afraid to die
I'm not afraid to bleed, and fuck, and fight.
I want the pain of payment
What's left, but a section of pigmy size cuts
Much like a slew of a thousand unwanted fucks
Would you be my little cut?
Would you be my thousand fucks?
And make mark leaving space for the guilt to be liquid
To fill, and spill over, and under my thoughts
My sad, sorry, selfish cry out to the cutter
I'm cutting trying to picture your black broken heart
Love is not like anything
Especially a fucking knife

Look at me, you can tell
By the way I move and do my hair
Do you think that it's me or it's not me?
I don't even care
I'm alive
I don't smell
I'm the cleanest I have ever been.
I feel big, I feel tall, I feel dry (dry)

[Chorus:]
Just look at me, look at me now
I'm a fake [x4]
Just look at me, look at me now
I'm a fake [x4]

Do I drink? Do I date?
I've got perfect placement all my ink
Satisfied, in your eyes
I'm the biggest fan I've got right now
I made sure, that I look how I wanted to look
The people around me, the people surround me
I feel big, I feel tall, I feel dry (dry)

[Chorus]

My stomach hurts now, and all tied off in lace
I pray, I beg for anything, to hit me in the face
and this sickness isn't me, I pray to fall from grace
The last thing I see is feeling
And I'm telling you I'm a fake [x4]
And I'm telling you I'm...

[Chorus]
In Love And Death

Vash 		yes. yes you are, bert. this album is the band's attempt at "intensity," which they've achieved on SO MANY levels on their last album, and this just sounds tacked on and... well, fake. this album sucks.

Ghetto Dracula 		I hate the beginning speech. He makes it sound like he has something big to say and it comes across like stupid babbling when he says it.

Brody 		I actually like the beginning speech...this is one of few songs on this album I think I'm going to like...Dunno..."Take It Away" is damned good, but I didn't have all too high of expectations to begin with...

Death King 		The beginning speech is really not necessary at all. It it really bad too. Dont get me wrong though this is probably my favorite song on the album which all of it is pretty good (the album) but i hate having to listen to this at the beginning of the song. It gets on my nerves.

Tristan. 		I wish they didn't have the poem at the start. It takes away from the song. They should have had the poem as an in-between-the-tracks track, so you could have the song sans the poem.

Tristan. 		This song is really amazing, but it gets tiring listening to the poem each time. But it's a good poem regardless.

FFAF 		saw it live tonight, really would have prefered they played Soundeffects And Overdramatics instead, or maybe Choke Me, or maybe Bulimic, or maybe Say Days Ago, Or maybe Noise and Kisses, or maybe Greener With Scenery, or maybe Buried Myself Alive. No big deal.

Anthony B 		I guess im one of the few who enjoys the intro, "I'm cutting trying to picture your black broken heart.
Love is not like anything.
Especially a fucking knife."

That part is chill

chokingonoxygen 		My friend always makes fun of the spoken word in this song, however he likes good charlotte. I have to say this is some of the coolest spoken word i've heard in a song. Minus the beginning where it's all like "SMALL SIMPLE SAFE PRICE" .. it sounds pretty damn corny.

HackBenjamin 		The only decent piece of the introduction of this song is "Love is not like anything, especially a fucking knife"...other than that, the intro sucks. But besides the intro, this song is fucking awesome.

KissMyFearsGoodbye_xox 		This song fucking rocks! It has a lot of emotion put inside of it, and a lot of songs don't have that. It was the perfect ending to a great album, a lot more artists albums should end this way. But hey, you gotta love the Used!

tomorrowismine 		Hey DrkRose....Big is a word to describe not being high. I dont know if hes using it in that way here, but small is a word they use for being all sorta of fucked up, and being BIG is being not high, so there ya go
