And my legs tremble from strain But by the finish line I am drained

Artist- Sea Wolf
Song of the day- Middle Distance Runner

Sometimes I'll hear the first 3 seconds of a song for the first time and know that I will a)love it. and b)it will be exactly the song I need at that moment. And not just in melody but feel and content is everything I feel and I'll get that hair on the back of the neck feeling like how did the universe know? That's what happened with today's song after a long day, after a long week of midterm studying and being burnt out and having that wanting to give up feeling. When you don't do as good at something as you wanted whether school, relationships, work, working with others or even life and you think I'm tired maybe this is just as far as I'm supposed to get. maybe I'm not supposed to finish the race or finish best. It's when you need someone to run to you instead of being the run who runs. And that's kind of a beautiful thing I think. So if your tired and can't quite run at the moment listen to this while your waiting on someone to run to you.

Well I'm so sad tonight
And the words won't come out right
It's been a long day on the track
And its stamina that I lack

So won't you run to me tonight?
Tonight we could pretend that we're just lovers
But I'll only ever be a middle distance runner

Well my heart is beating hard
And I'm off with a shot at the start
And my legs tremble from strain
But by the finish line I am drained

So won't you run to me tonight?
Tonight let's not talk about next summer
Cause I'll only ever be a middle distance runner

Well I'm so proud tonight
Of the woman you've become
And I'm just too tired to fight
So my darling, I'll succumb

But you'll have to run to me tonight
Tonight I will love you forever
But I'll only ever be a middle distance runner
