It is maybe mathematically more consistent to talk about the proper time (squared), which can be calculated for any trajectory without encountering any infinities. It corresponds to the total time elapsing for the traveller when having gone through this trajectory. For photons, this is exactly zero.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
