Essential
sorry baby
but lately it seems a part of me's missing
feels like I'm buried alive
and now I'm screaming out your name
help me from the hell I'm destined for
a kiss or a hug gets me closer to heaven
wrap your arms around me, never let go
I'm scared to death that I might slip
push you too far away
then I'll be lost in the dark forever
why does everything seem closer to the end?
wouldn't be so bad if it was my choice
guess they say I'm essential now
should I be proud?
I'm just looking for the check to clear
maybe they'll remember me if I get sick
say it's such a shame
we feel so bad for what's his name?
but when it comes to you
it will truly destroy you
told me I'm your hero
and I don't know what to make of that
I don't want to be a hero
just want to stay at home with you
the further away from other people
the closer to bliss I feel
just you and me laying in ecstasy
I can't dream
since I been waiting
for things to get back to normal
a part of me is missing
can't help but feel raped of my humanity
a slave to the essential
just remember it was never for anyone
but you
my life, if taken
will always be for you

Sometimes, taking long service leave or any other accrued leave is essential to mitigate the risk, and if that’s not possible, then wearing the appropriate protection will be critical !
Even if the masks make you feel a smidgen claustrophobic.
Always carry nitrile gloves, and hand sanitiser... ❤️
