Soon after the events of "Fire on the Mountain", Starscream, surprised that Skyfire is still alive, looks back on what he's done to him with mingled anger and regret. Meanwhile Skyfire reflects on what Starscream has become with some sadness, but mostly disappointment. Italics are Starscream's point of view, bold is Skyfire's. The song is "Forgiven" by Within Temptation. A few lines fit as they were, so I didn't change them.


Couldn't save you from the start
Searched until I nearly died
Can you forgive me?
For leaving you there
I only wanted to get help
Now time has passed you by

For awhile I thought that
We could still be friends
I never meant for
Things to go this way
Now we can't
Go back
Again

You gave up the fight
You left me behind
How can I forgive you now?
Our friendship has died
You don't seem to mind
How can I forgive you now?

Watched the stars come out tonight
They're as cold as you've become
I'm glad you could go on
With your life
But I'm not sure you have lived it well
I don't know who you are now

For awhile I thought that
We could still be friends
I never meant for
Things to go this way
Now we can't
Go back
Again

You gave up the fight
You left me behind
How can I forgive you now?
Our friendship has died
You don't seem to mind
How can I forgive you now?

I've been so alone since
You've gone
Why'd you have to come back
Just so you could leave me?
Everything turned out
So wrong
Why did you leave me
To die here?

You gave up the fight
You left me behind
How can I forgive you now?
Our friendship has died
You don't seem to mind
How can I forgive you now?
