Covid-19 Doctor Says

Covid-19. Doctor Says:

If i was given an option
I'll prefer quarantine with my family 
Self isolation with no glimpse of light 
Until all of it is over, but 
You sit me here fighting a war I've no tactics for 
Swapped my TV screen with telescope 
Doff my necklace and trade it with stethoscope 
Undress me to dress me with scrub and a lab coat 
Don't i deserve better with your deaf ears 
I'm sending you too a war no one has trained you for
Let me fight your battle and you'll do the same for me 

Do me a favour 
Grant me your deaf dripping ears 
That choose to listen not without a gun 
The weight upon me is unbearable 
I've been sleepless stopping a fire 
But you seem to be a wanderer with a leaked gas station 
How do you like the impression 'Sorry, he didn't make it' 
Yeah, you understand that even without moving a lip 
How is it different from stay at home and be safe 
Avoid handshakes and engage yourself with sanitizer 
Isolate yourself and turn on your TV 
Watch me as i keep you posted 
Wouldn't you save a soul like I'm trying hard to 
We'll get through this together,  Yes we can.
