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
