I saw you for the first time In a while on my front porch We were going for a walk The dog impatient for a mile On a cool November day You told me everything you’d found Another dream, disillusioned A sense of self doubt all around I tried my best to listen And I thought Oh, brother I know you well Oh, brother I know you well When you called again on Monday I knew something wasn’t right You said your dad didn’t believe you Said you just needed more time And again you left me speechless And again I held my tongue I used to pride myself on knowing What to say to anyone With thirty odd years living I hope I’ve done alright (alright) There’s a weight to your heart That I cannot pick up No matter how close I get There’s a look in your eyes That’s asking me to try Anyway Oh brother I know you well Oh brother I know you well Oh brother I know you well Oh brother I know you well

these precious thoughts

about

Permanent Things is the culmination of seven years of work and waiting. From an early demo of "needs & wants" released in August 2017 to this small collection of thoughts and feelings, May 2024.

This project would not be possible without the constant support and encouragement of my wife, Sarah Van Name. Thank you, Sarah.

Thank you to John and Mariel for taking these songs seriously and bringing all sorts of weirdness to them that I would never have conceived of on my own. Y'all are so cool.

Travis, thank you for joining me on this odd journey of a project, for being patient and offering solid ideas, and for being an excellent drummer (except at medium speeds). I promise to only write 200bpm and faster from here on out.

And to Miriam, thank you for lending a hand with the album art.

Here's to the next project! With any luck it won't take quite so long.
