it begins with a whisper that permeates the stillness of daylight, enveloping the forest in my periphery as i sink into the ground after her.

This was my submission for FORM's All Nighter Volume 9 event

The song was made in just under the 24 hours limit and I'm pretty happy with how it came out!  This is my first time really giving vocals a try, as well as trying a more guitar-centric song.  Felt great to make, so I'm hoping to keep it up over time!

Lyrics:
I miss the boy
I used to be
If you could see me now
would you recognize me?

and I'm sorry
and I'm sorry
and I'm sorry
I promise I'll make it up to you one day

Am I someone new?
Or do I still have you?
I still play with swords
to remember the view

Now it's been a long time
Needed to get by
Wondered about my
Future and past lives
I couldn't find my
Reason to really try
How did you just lie
waiting for streetlights?
Wanted to say hi
How was my past life
Did anything go right?
Did anything go right?

and I'm sorry
and I'm sorry
and I'm sorry
I promise I'll make it up to you one day
One day
One day
One day

One Day

One Day (FORM All Nighter Vol. 9 Submission)

🔻 Song Insight

Glass is a slow-burning grunge ballad wrapped in fragility and fracture. The song traces the hollowness of someone who uses addiction and illusion as control, building a kingdom out of smoke and shards. At its core, it’s about watching a person collapse under their own lies, propped up only by the drugs they wield — a false empire that eventually shatters. The chorus lingers like a curse: the wish that they sleep awake, forever haunted by what they’ve done.

🔻 Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I know the truth
And so do you
Hidden eyes
Kept inside
For every lie

[Chorus]
I hope you sleep awake
With nothing at your side
Dreams wash you down
Broken, alone, abandoned, unfound

[Verse 2]
Fake candied lies
The nothingness you hide
We know your truth inside
Facing facts, you already died

[Chorus] (Repeat)
I hope you sleep awake
With nothing at your side
Dreams wash you down
Broken, alone, abandoned, unfound

[Bridge]
Secrets breathing through teeth
Chatter leeches, hope in retreat
Blood-whipped brow, soaked lies unfold
Your glass empire shatters cold

[Verse 3]
Eyes see past your every try
Cold road, you show, take hold
Slipping doses of glass inside
Molding boys as toys to hide

[Chorus] (Extended)
I hope you sleep awake
With nothing at your side
Dreams wash you down
Broken, alone, abandoned, unfound
Nothing holding, illusion sold
Your glass will break, your grip will fold

[Outro]
Shards cut the hand that feeds
Nothing left but need
Glass in your veins, glass in your crown
When it breaks, you drown

🔻 Personal Reflection

Glass was written from a place of raw confrontation. It came from witnessing someone who defined themselves not by who they were, but by what they could control — and the drugs that gave them that control. Every false promise, every hollow mask, every manipulative move was held together with shards of glass. Without it, there was nothing left. This song is both a release and a reckoning — an acknowledgment that truth cuts sharper than any high.

🔻 4Me2BeFree

This track continues 4Me2BeFree’s mission of turning real pain into cinematic storytelling. Glass is both intimate and confrontational, a snapshot of betrayal and collapse captured in grunge minimalism. Like all 4Me2BeFree songs, it uses sound as a mirror — reflecting lived experiences, giving voice to what’s hard to say out loud, and creating a space where others can find recognition in the fragments of their own stories.
