Accustomed

If I told you that your up is down and down is up
Could you most certainly deny it?
If the bottom is your top
And always has been there
You’d be of this case unaware
And so not troubled by it
And if your head ached since you were born
Would you be able to feel it?
And since your birth same clothes you’ve worn
Would you regard them as your skin
And if a blade cut in
Could your body heal it?
I lived alone since I learned to think
And never was I loved by you
My life’s my head ache and my mink
I never knew another
Why then should I bother?
But I am scared I do.
