This is a song I wrote on 7/21/26. “Here Now” Intro (1, x, 3, 4)I know you’re out there,I’m hoping you hear me,Under the flat lines, Out where you’re dreaming,Where you’re running and laughing,Ain’t scared of nothing,In the joy of the summer,While we’re all waiting,Here now,Here now,What does it look like,Beyond all these hallways,Where I’mContinue reading “Here Now”

three
a simple song on the night of another friend’s passing — this world has become too much to bear, even our lord he was prone to despair, my god my god why have you forsaken me, i thought there is no shadow of turning with thee, – but in me, but in me, there areContinue reading “three”

take away (this eclipse)
A simple song written the night after our friend Luke Hollinger passed away. — It’s so crowded, without you here / This empty room, and all my fear, I’m not afraid, that God’s not real / But that he saw you shaking, didn’t heal. And that he’ll be greeted by my friend you’ve taken, IContinue reading “take away (this eclipse)”

all i know
I wrote this song one night while sitting on the floor of the room in the cover photo. Then, it still had bare studs and a plywood floor. It’s about the enneagram, and a girl, and it kind of borrows from a Springsteen song. To record, I put some delay and distortion on my nylonContinue reading “all i know”
good old days
This is my disbelieving smile: to those who say that we’re headed for hell – to those who say we’ve come so much farther than any other people – to those who say the good old days were so much different than today. My friends, these are the good old days. And we too willContinue reading “good old days”
in your arms
This is my favorite song on this album. It’s about having somewhere to run when the world around affords no place to hide, a bridge to walk up under when the road is getting driving rain. It’s a very short, simple song. I wrote it while sitting at my desk – then recorded it theContinue reading “in your arms”
to the sea
I was on a surfing trip in Charleston with some of my best friends when this song came to me. It was late at night, and I was sitting up in a stranger’s living room. Then I went to Corey’s house, and helped me record it. It’s about getting washed clean of everything that isn’tContinue reading “to the sea”
