Aspens Have Eyes

Angel or devil on his shoulder

Signals crossing

As he gets older

Voices blending

Within one another

Light and dark leave him in the grey

Hard To decipher

But the aspens have eyes

And to them its pretty clear

His intentions were right

Just off the path he's veered

Oh the aspens have eyes

But they don't have ears

See all the things he's done right

Should have nothing to fear

Maybes and what ifs

Plague his mind

Wanders aimlessly

Down a path to leave his troubles behind

But the aspens have eyes

And to them its pretty clear

His intentions were right

Just off the path he's veered

Oh the aspens have eyes

But they don't have ears

See all the things he's done right

Should have nothing to fear

Wild ride

chaotic strife

In a fight

With his past life

Trauma fears, old tears

Taking over while he sleeps at night

But the aspens have eyes

And to them its pretty clear

His intentions were right

Just off the path he's veered

Oh the aspens have eyes

But they don't have ears

See all the things he's done right

Should have nothing to fear
