I know it's hard But I can still hear it beating So if you flash your heart I won't mistreat it I promise

Artist- The Temper Trap
Song of the day- Love Lost

So I hated running in school. Like I would have anxiety over the days in gym where I knew we had to run a mile, and am pretty sure I had a nervous breakdown and quit my career in volleyball after being unable to run sprints. In hindsight I'm not sure what my problem was but at the time it was the most physically exhausting thing and encompassed an emotional pain and dread I could not express. As I watched the video for today's song (after falling head over heals for this song) I realized I'm having those same feelings again, but like all through nursing school. Like grad school is one long mile run with rain pouring and the need to vomit out of exhaustion and pain never far behind. But the thing is, I remember meeting some of my best friends at the end of the line, when I couldn't keep up running in with the star athletes in school. Towards the back of the line we'd have chats about how ridiculous the process was, we'd joke about the stupidest things and learn about each other through this freaking awful long journey we were forced to go on together. And luckily, grad school's been the same way. You're constantly running beside people who are covered in the same mud you are, being yelled at by the same crazy coaches to keep pushing yourselves, and you learn the same dance routines to make the run as entertaining as possible. So here's to all you runners and those you run beside. If your love is lost, I hope you find it.



Our love was lost
But now we've found it
Our love was lost, was lost
And hope was gone

Our love was lost
But now we've found it
And if you flash your heart, your heart
I won't deny it
I promise

I promise

Your walls are up
Too cold to touch it
Your walls are up, are up
Too high to climb

I know it's hard
But I can still hear it beating
So if you flash your heart
I won't mistreat it
I promise

I promise

Our love was lost
In the rubble are all the things
That you've, you've been dreaming of
Keep me in mind
When you're ready
I am here
To take you every time

Oh, our love was lost
Lost, lost, lost, lost..
Our love was lost
But now its found
