Meltpoint Marathon (versie 2)

Verse

Locker door swings, your hoodie's still on the hook

Frost on the window, the shape you mistook

For a warm hand waving, but you're already gone

Mile marker zero and the sun's not yet up

Steam off my coffee in this empty cup

Lacing up faster than my heart can hang on

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel me thawing with the pavement

Every stride's a different kind of ache

Is this the ending or a whole new pavement

Something in my chest about to break

Chorus

I'm running through the frost until it's steam

This is my meltpoint marathon, my ice turned into dream

Every mile you left me, I'm burning through it now

Meltpoint marathon, I don't need you to allow

Watch the heat come rising off the mile marker four

Meltpoint marathon, I don't need that door

I'm the fire in the snowbank, I'm the crack in the stone

Meltpoint marathon, and I'm running home

Verse

Mile nine, the ache in my knees knows your name

Photograph curling in a cracked picture frame

Left it on the porch where the ice never breaks

Sweat mixing cold like a strange kind of rain

Every heartbeat drumming out your name

Running till there's nothing left to shake

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel me thawing with the pavement

Every stride's erasing what I can't forget

Is this the ending or a whole new pavement

Something better than the goodbye yet

Chorus

I'm running through the frost until it's steam

This is my meltpoint marathon, my ice turned into dream

Every mile you left me, I'm burning through it now

Meltpoint marathon, I don't need you to allow

Watch the heat come rising off the mile marker four

Meltpoint marathon, I don't need that door

I'm the fire in the snowbank, I'm the crack in the stone

Meltpoint marathon, and I'm running home

Bridge

Maybe the goodbye was just ice going liquid

Maybe every ache is the fuel that I needed

I'll cross that line with your name in the wind

Not falling apart, I'm finally beginning

Chorus

I'm running through the frost until it's steam

This is my meltpoint marathon, my ice turned into dream

Every mile you left me, I'm burning through it now

Meltpoint marathon, I don't need you to allow

Watch the heat come rising off the mile marker four

Meltpoint marathon, I don't need that door

I'm the fire in the snowbank, I'm the crack in the stone

Meltpoint marathon, and I'm running home
