It's sink or swim!!!

-----

fault lines
plates all start to shake, i feel them
break ground while i break down and hide away
sometimes
i wish i could be social
don't wanna smell like isopropyl anymore

and the circles that i wear
could've come from anywhere
and no one seems the wiser
don't think anybody cares

studying the patterns in the floor
cuz i can't stare in the mirror
i'm beside myself

(you said, are you sad)
(you said, are you sad, you said)
(you said, are you sad, you said)
(you said, are you sad, yeah)

and right now it's sink or swim
cuz i got tired of rowing
let the waves carry me
i don't know where i'm going
and i tried to love myself
even though it seemed so pointless
i'm sorry, i can't, i already committed
to being a disappointment

and the circles that i wear
could've come from anywhere
and no one seems the wiser
don't think anybody cares

studying the patterns in the floor
cuz i can't stare in the mirror
i'm beside myself

(you said, are you sad)
(you said, are you sad, you said)
(you said, are you sad, you said)
(you said, are you sad, yeah)

i'm here again, here again
(mm, yeah yeah)
i'm here again, here again
i'm here again, here again
(mm, yeah yeah)
i'm here again, oh

✧ Lyrics
The words fell out of your mind again
And that tree fell down where your time was spent
Couldn’t know enough, that you had to rush until the end
That’s all that counts they said
But do you believe them now
Because your crying out
For the speed of light
To slow down with time 
You can hide away the fears you face
That won’t get rid of the feeling
That you’re trying change, it’s far too late but we’ll escape

And it doesn’t matter now
I can see the clouds roll out

Far below underneath 
I reach for something I see
In hearts in language we speak
The key we buried so deep

In tones we carry along
We pray until they are gone
And our words will someday be lost
When the winds come to a stop

It won’t stop
So carry on
When I pause
I know what I’ve lost

And I need to know
Why I try to keep you here
But if you go on
I won’t drag it on

And it doesn’t matter now
I can see the clouds roll out

moving on
a part of me hates how this shit turned to gold
walked out of heaven 
as i lose control
pardon me
its a part of me

holding on
you said it was easy
you said it was gold
so close to the sun 
and ill follow you home
but your just out of reach

~ will you stay ~ 

so please don't go
so please don't go

ICONS

@acloudyskye

fig i. If I would know you, would you know me?

Lyrics:
Were you there at the start
When the night was a part of a window
I had seen through over and over again
Every moment I’ve asked
Is this happening now
My heart has never quite sounded so loud

(Hey-a-sha-ma, Oh, My Desire!)

Hide away from this I try
Storm uncovering focused eyes
Hear your names in terms of suns
Shouting out til I was done

And it hit me all at once
Across all that came from dust
Into where every river runs
I will wait for you to go

Is this it?
Is this it?
Wait for this
Oh

(Wherever you are)

Just follow me my dear
Despite all I feared
Bright eyes stare clear
I know you’re almost here

Empty Space

And when I'm all done
I'll cut the lights
Lock the door shut
Go outside
Down by the forest
Near the powerlines
Down that dirt road
There's a place to hide

And if it gets better, it's taking forever
And what's with this weather, it's not getting better

And I've had enough
Of keeping it quiet
I tried to stop lying
But I just ran instead
So I'll keep my secrets
To the bitter end
And when I'm on my deathbed
I still won't tell them

And if it gets better, it's taking forever
And what's with this weather, it's not getting better
The sky's turning red now, they say it's just sundown
But I start to count aloud, and watch as the sun drowns

Rayleigh Scattering

I'm floating in an empty pond
I'll swim away until I'm gone
And tell me that it won't be long
Until you get everything you want
And are these noises coming from
Down below or up above
This world of yours will come undone
It's such a shame that you can't come

At Rest

@mattbarri / @licon

On February 6th, 2021, over 800 unique artists came together to create a single charity compilation in 24 hours. Taking advantage of the fact that this would be the only FORM All Nighter event of the year, each participant went all-out. 45 of the most stellar tracks were hand-picked to create an album that’s phenomenal front-to-back— from math rock, to gritty electronic, to chiptune.

All Nighter Vol. 6 is a reflection of creativity, teamwork, and the sleepless delusion that comes with staying up all night— but most of all, it’s a reflection of our community. We couldn't ask for a better one.

All profits from All Nighter Vol. 6 will be donated to Prevent Child Abuse America.

Lyrics:

Hey it’s nice to meet you
I just crashed here all alone
Traveled through the milky way
Just to find a sense of home

I’ve been waiting a long time to feel this way
Take my hand and we’ll travel the world we made
I’ve been searching for you for so long
At the speed of light into the stars!

I see a world for you and me 
A place that we can’t see
Not afraid of who we are
At the speed of light into the stars!

At the speed of light into the stars!

I see a world for you and me 
A place that we can’t see
Not afraid of who we are
At the speed of light into the stars!

I see a world for you and me 
A place that we can’t see
Not afraid of who we are
At the speed of light into the stars!

I see a world for you and me 
A place that we can’t see
Not afraid of who we are
At the speed of light into the stars!
