Burning the edge of the frame (version 2)

Verse

Glass shatters where the light goes through

City's veins are running gold

The frame is breaking slow

Can't hold it like we used to know

We're chasing down every fading ray

Falling forward into gray

Nothing left but empty space

So I'm turning my face

Towards the sound of an open place

Every edge is pulling us apart

But the pulse in my chest will start

A fire that never turns cold

And for one moment, we'll be free

Right where the light goes through and me

Chorus

Burning the edge of the frame

We're not running from this flame

Fading out but still we shine

Burning the edge of the frame

Every shadow gives way to gold

Not holding back any more time

So let it burn

Let it burn

Let it burn

Burning the edge of the frame

Nothing left behind but fire and flame

We're not running from this flame

Just a little bit closer now than we've been before

And for one moment, we'll be free

Verse

Steel turns to silver as it bends

Rust on the edges where we don't intend

No line remains that can hold us down

The current is turning round and round

Pulse in my chest keeps climbing fast

Something's breaking at last

Not holding back, not looking back

Just a spark that will crack open the black

Every edge dissolves into gold

Leaving nothing but this moment to hold

So I'm moving closer where there used to be space

And for one second, we don't look like ghosts in time

Only the light and only my name

But neither of us knows exactly how or why

It's just a feeling that keeps pulling us through

Right to the edge of the frame

Chorus

Burning the edge of the frame

We're not running from this flame

Fading out but still we shine

Burning the edge of the frame

Every shadow gives way to gold

Not holding back any more time

So let it burn

Let it burn

Let it burn

Burning the edge of the frame

Nothing left behind but fire and flame

We're not running from this flame

Just a little bit closer now than we've been before

And for one moment, we'll be free

Pre-Chorus

Can you see the way that light cuts through?

Right where it hits, nothing stays true

Not the edges or the frame

Only you and I in this one place

Where every shadow starts to turn gold

Is it over yet or is it just beginning?

I don't know but we're not done with the ending

Something's rising right below my skin

Chorus

Burning the edge of the frame

We're not running from this flame

Fading out but still we shine

Burning the edge of the frame

Every shadow gives way to gold

Not holding back any more time

So let it burn

Let it burn

Let it burn

Burning the edge of the frame

Nothing left behind but fire and flame

We're not running from this flame

Just a little bit closer now than we've been before

And for one moment, we'll be free

Bridge

Maybe this is all I ever needed

Just the pulse in my chest and you beside me

No reason to stop now or turn back time

We're burning down the edge of the line

Nothing left but light and open space
