He's Got the Gout

Wake up
Touch the ground
Landing with a pound
The pain hits when you get down
And you can tell that something's wrong
Looking at your feet
They're swelling up and kinda beat
He's not going insane
It hurts to do like anything
He tried to go buy some antibiotic cream at the convenience store but they were fresh out
He has to explain why he can't have anything with acid in it cause he's got the gout
Limp to the cabinet now
And take a pill labeled for gout
Side effects include a bout
Of losing sleep but that I doubt
That's the breaks he has to work
But can't walk right so has to lurch
Walking around like a jerk
wait, maybe that's a perk
The rest of the day is gonna be a big change
And it won't be the same to go to cook outs
He has to explain why he can't have anything with red meat in it cause he's got the gout
Red wine
Red meat
I can't eat
Cause of my feet
They flare up
Like wet socks
And makes it really hard to walk
It feels like I've been stepping on glass
I think I'm not going anywhere fast
You're gonna have to deal with the change of pace
While I try to deal with the pain

Wreck

I'm a nervous wreck
And I can't fool anyone
And I can't trust anyone
Except myself
It's no use
Wishing I were smarter
Wishing I were taller
It's just a whiny life
And I need professional help
Someone to check my mental health
It's something i can't get through myself
I got a lot of regrets
And I don't know how to cope
I write them in an envelope
Then I throw it away
It's alright
But I think about it all night
I'm up until the sunlight
And I lose my mind
I need professional help
A weight lifted off my self doubt
In case you couldn't already tell
I try to tell myself at least I'm safe and sound
And all the friends i know don't leave they stick around
I think the world just feels like a living hell
I don't think that's too hard a sell
And I'm in over my head
Got my feelings on a shelf
Maybe I could share the wealth
If I wasn't in the red
And I think I see clearly now
It's something we should talk about
Maybe it should be with a shout
Instead of all our thoughts being held
In case you couldn't already tell
