life is not to live as your own
maybe you can be whole in your home
you find me collecting the wind for the tides
and to them, you're just dust in the sky
what do you wish for?
(health, wealth, and time
peace for the world, and of mind)
what do you wish for?
(a girl or a guy
a few sunny days, a few starry nights)
do you find peace in knowing
that the world is slowly growing
or would you rather be the same as before
leaving stardust in your wake
grant them a wish for their sake
it's a sign of the times
lend them a hand and they'll be fine
maybe in reflection you've found
the broken pieces of your crown
you don't have to worry about them now
the stars line the world, safe and sound
maybe within the surface
you can find purpose
in who you are
and you
you are so worth it
just know you always
shine like a star

a soul inside of a shell
my life is made of chrome
escape so i wont be alone
come with me, we wont be lonely
follow and you'll see just who we can be
we'll be set free
we'll be set free
a soul inside of a shell
my life is made of chrome
escape so i wont be alone
come with me, we wont be lonely
follow and you'll see just who we can be

the tide crashes in
carrying my worries
but it takes me in
in over my head
as i'm swept away
i see the stars around me
and it makes me believe
that i was meant to fall
to fall, to fall, to fall, to fall
to fall, to fall, to fall, to fall
all i'll ever know is what i feel
the air gets hard to breathe as i sink into the floor
before i slip away completely
close your eyes
slowly, zoom out
to fall, to fall
to fall, to fall, to fall, to fall
to fall, to fall, to fall, to fall

[INTRO: bh]
Ah, ah, ahhh
Ah, ah, ahhh
Ah, ah, ahhh
Ahhh
[CHORUS 1: bh, holidaykiss & Ambynt]
Hey, I'm not feeling myself today
I feel like I should run away
I feel like I should run away
And I got so much to tell
But I don't know how to say it
My mind's such a mess
And I can't even convey it, no
I don't wanna start over
I don't wanna start over
I don't wanna start over
I don't wanna start over
I don't wanna start over
(oooh ahhh)
(Thoughts form in my head)
(Thoughts form in my head)
I don't wanna start over
(oooh ahhh)
(Thoughts form in my head)
(Thoughts form in my head)
[VERSE 1: Ambynt & holidaykiss]
Thoughts form in my head
So I'll stitch up a quilt, partially painted pastel colors
Bakery full of books I've read
Tea stains drown the paper and make words flow
(And this is awkward)
(oooh ahhh)
(Stich up a-- stitch-- stitch-- stitch-- stitch--)
(Painted pastel colors)
(Bakery full of books I’ve read)
(Tea stains)
(Pa-- pa-- paper and make-- pa-- pa--)
I can't keep up with conversation
Without ripping my tongue out
(oooh ahhh)
But so far, things went well
So intent on catching me
(oooh ahhh)
Driving down to Aunt Lucy's
Me and my pickup wave farewell
(oooh ahhh)
[PRECHORUS: oneohkay]
I can't keep up with conversation
Ripping my tongue out
But so far, things went well
So intent on--
Catching me wave farewell
[CHORUS 2: bh, holidaykiss & Ambynt]
(Pickup-- pick-- pick-- pick-- pick--)
(Pickup wave farewell)
(Pickup wave farewell)
(oooh ahhh)
Hey, I'm not feeling myself today
I feel like I should run away
I feel like I should run away
And I got so much to tell
But I don't know how to say it
My mind's such a mess
And I can't even convey it, no
I don't wanna start over
I don't wanna start over
I don't wanna start over
I don't wanna start over
I don't wanna start over--

You need to listen to me. I'm real. I'm here.
You...are good.
Thank you...for believing that I am good.

Dreaming about that time
I closed my eyes
And envisioned a future
I might not reach
And I might not return
But I'll carry on
I'll carry on
With the wind
Underneath my feet
I'll soar higher and higher
Until I touch the sun
And I'll never forget you
Wise old friend
I hope that we'll meet
And find our peace
As the sun's warmth consoles me
I stare onto the sea
Surrounded by these roses
An ever-changing meadow
Singing a silent melody
Searching for something to cling to
Dreaming about that time
I closed my eyes
And envisioned a future
I might not reach
And I might not return
But I'll carry on
I'll carry on

will the water find me, I have no clue
im scared to death, thats nothing new
If I hadn't drowned then, I never will
If I hadn't drowned then, I never will
with a note beside me saying you're not alone
The doctor said to me, 'stay strong'
I pick up myself and Im not alone
If I hadn't drowned then, I never will

From April 16th to May 7th, 10 writers, 29 visual artists, and 56 musicians put their heads together to create FORM's most collaborative multimedia event yet. Writers wrote stories, visual artists used them to create cover art, and musicians gave a soundtrack to the narrative and visuals they were given. Together, they formed 10 tracks-- each one with unique cover art and a brilliant backstory.
STORYBOOK is truly the essence of FORM; while multimedia collaboration is no easy feat, the results are always absolutely phenomenal. Every artist is a storyteller in their own right.
All profits from STORYBOOK will be donated to Educando, a nonprofit dedicated to making education in Latin America more accessible.
