Track Name: Someone Else: I was going to a place that I had never been before
You told me to abuse the situational control
I don't expect to leave the way you want to when I die
I know it's not that easy but I'm sure you've never tried

No way to go home
Always

You said I could never be myself
acting like I'm someone else
I don't think you understand

So I struggle to believe that there was once another life
The years they disappear and they can never satisfy
The moment seems so fleeting that I wonder if it's real
Well don't expect to see me when you settle for the deal

No way to go home
So say what you want
I'll wait in the zone
Always

You said I could never be myself
acting like I'm someone else
I don't think you understand

You said I could never be myself
acting like I'm someone else
I don't think you understand
understand
understand
Track Name: Summer Bummer: Hey you with your red hair
So cute slight of frame
You wait in the bedroom
I'll wait in the grave

I'm made of a memory of my mind but I'll leave it all behind
You fade when your enemies all subside what can you say

Hey you with your brown hair
Don't look so ashamed
You made your confession
So useless and brave

I'm made of a memory of my mind but I'll leave it all behind
You fade when your enemies all subside what can you say

Now that it's summer
Everything's such a bummer again
Now that it's summer
I'll be waiting with you

Now that it's summer
Everything's such a bummer again
Now that it's summer
I'll be waiting with you
Track Name: Walking Away: Everything I've lived isn't what it's supposed to be
and I'll never understand just what went wrong
Comforting the breach as I sunder what it means
there's a devastating state inside us all

Oh watch you walking away
Oh it's the death of my faith

Nothing is complete and I'm having trouble breathing
and every day routine just feels so dull
Everything I've lived isn't what it's supposed to be
and I'll never understand just what went wrong

Oh watch you walking away
Oh it's the death of my faith
Oh watch you walking away
Oh it's the death of my faith yeah

Oh watch you walking away
Oh it's the death of my faith
Oh watch you walking away
Oh it's the death of my faith
Track Name: Crawl: Well all you do is take the pain
With every thought just drifting away
But you don't know why we're to blame
And it's all so true and sick again

But I can crawl away if you want
Yes I can go away if you want
Ain't nothing gonna change if you won't
Yes I can crawl away if you want

Well suffering you may be safe
But how much more of the guilt can you take
Confused and spiral down the drain
but it' all so true and sick again

But I can crawl away if you want
Yes I can go away if you want
Ain't nothing gonna change if you won't
Yes I can crawl away if you want

But I can crawl away if you want
Yes I can go away if you want
Ain't nothing gonna change if you won't
Yes I can crawl away if you want
Track Name: Daylight: I'll wait for the day
Healthy glow burn away
You know I get weird
Take it slow never fail

Why don't we just close our eyes and pray
Everything will be okay
When we count the lows as highs again
I'll be waiting for the daylight to fade

They know don't explain
Empty soul dirty brain

Why don't we just close our eyes and pray
Everything will be okay
When we count the lows as highs again
I'll be waiting for the daylight to fade

Wait for the day
Dream away

Why don't we just close our eyes and pray
Everything will be okay
When we count the lows as highs again
I'll be waiting for the daylight to fade
Track Name: Older: Every day getting old
Never did what I'm told
Living life as it bleeds
It's not easy but I believe in somewhere else
I believe in you
Because I can see there's somewhere else
Skies and seas of blue

Every night simple truth
Burn a page from youth
Future lost in the past
They deceive me but I believe in somewhere else
I believe in you
Because I can see there's somewhere else
Skies and seas of blue

Everything has begun
Chances breed only son
Nothing worse than it seems
It's not easy but I believe in somewhere else
I believe in you
Because I can see there's somewhere else
Skies and seas of blue
Track Name: Never Knew You: I don't know where to be because I have never been this far
No one new nothing free a glimpse of every faded cut

All we need isn't wrong
All we see is nervousness and calm

They wait for me they wait too long
Never knew you at all never knew you at all
They wait for me they wait too long
Never knew you at all never knew you at all

Nothing more to believe the bitterness in everyone
Such a fool so unclean
But I can't choose to give you up but it's gone yeah

All we need isn't wrong
All we see is nervousness and calm

They wait for me they wait too long
Never knew you at all never knew you at all
They wait for me they wait too long
Never knew you at all never knew you at all

Always
Never knew you at all always

They wait for me they wait too long
Never knew you at all never knew you at all
They wait for me they wait too long
Never knew you at all never knew you at all
Track Name: Disappearing: Places everyone
Stumble through the vacuum of the sun

I am disappearing now I am disappearing now
You won't get away from yourself

Someday we will find the dreams we left unturned
Finally confined once again

Faces in my mind
Glowing and contracting out of time

I am disappearing now I am disappearing now
You won't get away from yourself

Someday we will find the dreams we left unturned
Finally confined once again
Every time you lie I feel so in the way
Why don't you comply or complain

Someday we will find the dreams we left unturned
Finally confined once again
Every time you lie I feel so in the way
Why don't you comply or complain
Track Name: Dreaming To Forget: I wake up in the middle of the night
But something isn't right
Still thinking about you

So I mumble through these worthless lines
And hope that no one minds
Complacent til the end and there's no feeling well I know

I complain that the worst in me is fine
so blue cold and grey in a whirlwind you will be completely blind

Looking back it all seems so unkind
Deserving of my time
Excuses are your trade

There's no point in keeping this alive
I guess we never tried
Indifferent to the point of slow deletion well I know

I complain that the worst in me is fine
so blue cold and grey in a whirlwind you will be completely blind

You wake up when I sleep
I sleep when your awake
We make up cause we're dreaming to forget

You wake up when I sleep
I sleep when your awake
We make up cause we're dreaming to forget
Track Name: Underwater: I'm floating in space
I can't feel anything
No disgrace

And you bury that cross
Now it's inevitable
That you're lost

And you underwater
Don't be scared
But I can't see at all
And you holy daughter
Nothing's fair
But I can't seem to hide

Waves breaking above
I'm getting further away
No control

And you underwater
Don't be scared
But I can't see at all
And you holy daughter
Nothing's fair
But I can't seem to hide away
I can't hide away
I cant hide away from myself

We never belong yeah now I can't go anywhere
If you'd only show

And you underwater
Don't be scared
But I can't see at all
And you holy daughter
Nothing's fair
But I can't seem to hide away
I can't hide away
I cant hide away from myself

But I can't see at all
And I can't breath at all
Track Name: Wasted: So it goes every once in awhile
I will cry in my soup
But hey what's that at the end of the line
I don't mind but I do

When you go to a place in your life
that is fine that is new
Well you know it's a waste of your time
So I don't try but I think you do

And all we need is life wasted
and all we live is life wasted

If I could face the truth I would lie
If I could face the truth

And all we need is life wasted
and all we live is life wasted

If I could face the truth I would lie
If I could face the truth I would lie
If I could face the truth I would lie
I would lie
Track Name: Heal Over Time: Someone else's dream isn't mine
Always no sand no time
But I need to see what I find
So please before I die

ooooh it's another mistake
ooooh and you're turning away
ooooh and they say it will heal by itself over time
over time

Someone's losing sleep on the phone
It makes me feel right at home
Every day I see all the lies
They seem so simple and tired

ooooh it's another respite
ooooh when I turn out the light
ooooh and they say it will heal by itself over time
over time
over time
over time

Cardinal
by Pinegrove

supported by 4 fans who also own “Slumber”

We are enormous fans of Pinegrove but that feels like an understatement. We are for everything they do from their DIY ethic to our fellow Jersey roots and of course to their musical novelty, more pressingly, their lyricism. I contend there's no current alt/indie project that shares the challenge towards articulation that Evan produces. Every track is indispensable. The album is consummate like that; Old friends is incomplete without new friends, cadmium without aphasia, so on/so forth. latchkeykids
