The Sky Ran Out of Frames Lyrics

Lyrics for "The Sky Ran Out of Frames" from the Dust Protocol world.

[Verse 1]

The sunset stuttered twice and then it paused on red

Like someone pulled the ribbon from its head

The birds fly into edges we can't scroll past

The sky ran out of memory at last


[Verse 2]

I snapped a photograph — it caught the frame before

The light between the light, behind the door

My shadow waves at me... I wave back like a fool

Old classmates from the school of beautiful


[Chorus]

The sky ran out of frames today

It held so much it gave itself away

The sky ran out of frames, that's fine

What matters most was never saved on time


[Bridge]

I never will be younger than I am right now

I never will be closer than I am right now

This moment is already

A photograph of somewhere I have been


[Final Chorus]

The sky ran out of frames today

It held so much it gave itself away

The sky ran out of frames... that's fine

What matters most was never saved on time


[Outro]

Never saved on time...
