lyrics

“Penstemon”
You think you’ve made up your mind
On the straightest route you find
Eat your idols every meal
Can’t swallow your own polished stone ideals

Too late you’ve doused the fire
In the closets of your desire
Fit yourself into the mold
And you’ve filled yourself full of all the fury you can hold

All the mud that you’ve thrown to absolve your sins
Collect it all and plant your penstemon
Your arms ache and your faith breaks
But you’ll be, stubborn till the end

Never chaste until you’re tried
And you pass on every ride
Scream out now or keep your quiet
If only you could see yourself from the outside

about

Steven Kattenbraker Washington

Part Eliott Smith, part L. Cohen, as run through the production wringer of Daniel Ash…Kattenbraker’s baritone voice is pleasant and soothing. The guitar work sweet and mellow and, might I add, deftly played… Portland’s Music Liberation Project
