What rushes into my heart and my skull, I can’t control Think about it, feel it in my bones

Artist- Tegan & Sara
Song of the day- "Feel it in my bones"

As I study for my very last final of the summer, I keep getting distracted by the freedom I'm about to have I can just taste it! Summer is almost over though just about to start for me beginning with finally getting to see this unbelievable band on wednesday. Tegan and Sara always leave this ache in the pit of my stomach that I just can't get enough of. This song specifically, reminds me of conversations I used to have with some of my christian friends when we'd talk about the "call" or plan God had for us, the "where" or "who" God was leading us to. Some people had such great passion for a specific country like Africa or a specific culture or need, the enslaved or working with kids, etc. And I always wondered what mine was. I grew up being too scared to leave my own house sometimes to being slowly pushed more out of my comfort zone and it's cuz God changed my heart. I went from being too scared to touch people, being uncomfortable at the sight of tears or pain to craving the moments when god could use these stupid little hands and stupid little words to brighten the darkness or try and mend what is so easily broken. It's an ache I feel in my bones all the time and not just for one group. Cuz pain or sadness isn't saved for one group of people but every single person at different times in their life. I'm not trying to say I'm this amazing heartless person, cuz I'm still all about my needs my wanting to not study and demanding you to like my music, and on and on...but we all have that ache to do something and maybe you've been ignoring yours or haven't found yours yet. If so let this song sharpen your dull pains till you find your calling.



Blow by blow, I didn't see it coming
Blow by blow, sucker punch
Rushes in
Here to stay
Rushes in
You are here to stay

What rushes into my heart and my skull, I can’t control
Think about it, feel it in my bones
What rushes into my heart and my skull, I can’t control

I feel you in my bones
You’re knocking on my windows
You’re slow to letting me go
And I know this feeling oh, so
This feeling in my bones

Left hook, I didn’t see it coming
Left hook, you’ve got dead aim
Rushes out
Run away
Rushes out
You always run away

What rushes into my heart and my skull, I can’t control
Think about it, feel it in my bones
What rushes into my heart and my skull, I can’t control

I feel you in my bones
You’re knocking on my windows
You’re slow to letting me go
And I know this feeling oh, so
This feeling in my bones

I feel you in my bones
You’re knocking on my windows
You’re slow to letting me go
And I know this feeling oh, so
This feeling in my bones

I feel it in my bones
At night my skull feels pressure
I feel it in my bones
I feel it in my skull

I feel you in my bones
You’re knocking at my windows
You’re slow to letting me go
And I know this feeling oh, so
This feeling in my bones

I take a breath, take a breath with me blow by blow
I take a break, take a break, tell me you are here to stay
I take my heart out of my chest,
I just don’t need it anymore
Take my head out of the game,
I just don’t need it anymore

Take a breath, take a breath with me blow by blow
Take a break, take a break, from me you are here to stay
I take my heart out of my chest,
I just don’t need it anymore
Take my head out of the game,
I just don’t need it anymore

I feel you in my bones
You’re knocking on my windows
You’re slow to letting me go
And I know this feeling oh, so
This feeling in my bones
