Hey guys I know I should be working on my other story but I felt I needed to do this. It's a songfic. The song is Bluebeard by Band of Horses. I thought this really fit Robin so here it goes. The song is slanted like this.
Robin: Aren't you forgetting something
Oh yeah I own nothing except the sandwich I am eating.
(Robin is sitting on a roof in thought while on patrol)
_Robin's POV_
I used to see the night so anxious, but now I know
The only thing it ever taught me was a grand illusion
That comes and goes, the city blanketed of snow.
I looked at the stars remembering how before the circus disaster, heavy on the dis-, my dad and I used to look at the stars. I hoped it would be like that forever just me, dad, and the stars. Now I realize that it's an illusion. People come and go. So do the stars.
What if we die, no end and no conclusion.
How could you smile, just walk away.
Well I don't know.
I don't know.
When my parents died that was it, they died, their end, their conclusion. My last memory was talking to them right before the final performance we were all happy and smiling. Right after the accident I didn't know what to do, it was like being completely hopeless.
I met you at the railroad station, now years ago.
And something happened on the night I last drank with you in the neon glow.
Now I don't see you anymore.
After that I met Bruce Wayne. I remember the day I found the batcave. I had a long discussion with Batman and Alfred over a cup of hot chocolate. I became Robin. I saw more of Batman than Bruce Wayne.
The Midwestern sky, is gray and cold.
The sun never shines, but that's alright.
And I couldn't find the letters that you wrote me.
What did you write? Where'd you go, well I don't know. No.
Take a little time gonna roll the dice
Taken for a ride, any normal life will do, too.
Find another way, try to break the ice
Every day and night, the banana peels were true (?). True.
Yeah I didn't finish I know shoot me now but I felt the need to post something. I highly recommend the song though
