awaiting

she walks by the side
of the ocean, singing to the tide
she knows what she saw
they say "it's a miracle she's here to tell it at all"
her friends and her family don't believe her
when she says there's something deeper waiting just below the tide
i wish i could tell her, she's looking in the wrong direction
her savior's waiting lonely in the sky

over and over and over again
she waits on the shoreline for the waves to roll in
over and over and over again she tries, to find what's missing
over and over and over again
she waits on the shoreline for the waves to roll in
over and over and over again she tries, to find what's missing

over and over and over again
she waits on the shoreline for the waves to roll in
over and over and over again she tries, to find what's missing
over and over and over again
she waits on the shoreline for the waves to roll in
over and over and over again she tries, to find what's missing

From August 10th to August 11th, 2024, over 1,000 creatives woke up early, clocked out of work, gathered with friends, and prepared for the 24-hour challenge to come. As submissions roll in, the day passes in the blink of an eye. Musicians put their final touches on their songs, passing around the master file for one final polish from all collaborators. Visual artists eagerly await for the few final minutes of their render to pass with no issues. All participants take one big, deep breath as they upload their files and hit "Submit". Out of 562 music submissions and 71 art submissions, 45 shining tracks and one cover design were selected and organized with care into one final album. It captures a glimpse of the evolving creativity not just of our community, but of creatives everywhere.

First and foremost, All Nighter is about joy; the payoff is well worth it, but the purpose is in the process. It's so much more than making a song or cover art with a friend—it's human connection. It's learning how to push yourself beyond your creative limits. It's taking pride in your hard work. It's meeting new people who happen to love the same musicians and artists as you. Creating what makes you happy is a joy that keeps the wheels of creativity turning; we all owe it to ourselves to love what we make, and make what we love.

All proceeds from All Nighter, Vol. 9 will be donated to the National Alliance for Eating Disorders, a charity that provides referrals, education, and support to individuals experiencing eating disorders and their loved ones.

Lyrics:
I can do whatever u want!
so take me to ur heart!
so I can see how u work,
and find out who u really are
ur so talented and yet ur just like me!
what makes us so different? u think differently

its not a secret so, why do u keep it?
i wanna hear all about u
and then u look away, chose secrecy today
u have the key, can't u teach me??

practice isnt hard, ur eyes are on the stars
whatever i give up, our interests are apart, 
i'll just go find another way, and i can't wait to make u say

wow you worked so hard! ur eyes were on the stars,
i'm better than u were, im worse now than u are
i still end up falling behind, even after all this time?

I can do whatever u want!
so take me to ur heart!
so I can see how u work,
and find out who u really are
ur so talented and yet ur just like me!
what makes you so special, that's your specialty

thinking differently, you're a different me

it's not a secret so, why do I keep it?
that's what u said, effortlessly
you wanna know so bad? If so I'll tell u that
I have the key

I can do whatever u want!
so take me to ur heart!
so I can see how u work,
and find out who u really are
ur so talented and yet ur just like me!
I'm closing the distance to a different me

𝘭𝘺𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘴:

the closer I am the more I forget
of songs and rhymes your mind offsets
whispering things you lost to age
wait up you're here, and everything's ok

the closer I am, more forgot
memories unwritten, rush of thought
it gets easier for you
pages full of things I never knew
safe on my own current pulling on
things left in corners that dust stays on
unfamiliar cadence eases feelings lost within

hear the sounds I'm not alone
calling the things that we have known
whisper here our past mistakes
hold up its you just listen and we'll sing

hear the sounds I'm not alone
calling the things that we have known
whisper here our past mistakes
hold up its you just listen and we'll sing

the closer I am the more I forget
of songs and rhymes your mind offsets
whispering the things you lost to age
wait up your here, and everything's ok

Over the last two years, the FORM community has seen it all. We've seen faces come and go. Artists who were once inexperienced found the support and encouragement they needed. Friendships were made, memes were crafted, chaos often ensued. We're confident that All Nighter Vol. 5, our most conceptual compilation to date, is the culmination of the hard-work and creativity our community has demonstrated over the last two years. Thank you all for listening.

All Nighter is FORM's signature series of compilations, comprising tracks from across the genre spectrum composed entirely within 24 hours. All proceeds from streams and digital sales will be donated to Doctors Without Borders.
