ROBINROX: This is the last song from the BtVS: OM, WF soundtrack. It's for
Nightwing, and this one, there will be a few actions, because they are
necessary for the song to make any sense at all. This is about a year
before Star gets back and Nightwing is battling a few baddies on the
street. I've changed a few words here and there, but only because it
wouldn't make any sense if I didn't. Cue hologram projector! *a projector
somewhere in the room projects a very real-looking hologram of the night
streets of Jump City.* Cue random baddies! *a few random gang members with
a very attractive female hostage appear on the scene* Cue music! *snaps
fingers**'Going Through The Motions' music starts* Cue Nightwing!
Nightwing: *appears on the scene*
Nightwing: *walking around* Every single night
The same arrangement
I go out and fight the fight
Still I always feel
This strange estrangement
Nothing here is real
Nothing here is right
*sees gang members with the VAFH* I've been making shows
*goes over and starts fighting* Of trading blows
Just hoping no one knows
That I've been
Going through the motions
Walking through the part
Nothing seems to penetrate my heart
I was always brave and kind of righteous
Now I find I'm wavering
Crawl out of your grave
You find this fight just
*a gang member approaches him* Doesn't mean a thing
Gang Member: He ain't got that swing
Nightwing: *hits him* Thanks for noticing
Gang Members: *dancing around like they're running away from Nightwing* He does pretty well with fiends from hell
But lately we can tell
That he's just
Going through the motions
Faking it somehow
Gang Leader: He's not even half the man he-Ow...*has just been hit in the back of the head by Nightwing*
Nightwing: *beats the rest of the gang members* Will I stay this way forever
*frees the VAFH* Sleepwalk through my life's endeavor
Very Attractive Female Hostage: How can I repay-
Nightwing: -Whatever *walks away*
I don't wanna be *continues to patrol Jump City*
Going through the motions
Losing all my drive
I can't even see
If this is really me
And I just wanna be
Alive
*the hologram goes away and so do the gang members and the VAFH. Nightwing is the only one left*
ROBINROX: Oh, Nightwing, that was amazing! *hugs Nightwing*
Nightwing: Ow...Please stop hugging me...
Nightwing: *appears on the scene*
Nightwing: *walking around* Every single night
The same arrangement
I go out and fight the fight
Still I always feel
This strange estrangement
Nothing here is real
Nothing here is right
*sees gang members with the VAFH* I've been making shows
*goes over and starts fighting* Of trading blows
Just hoping no one knows
That I've been
Going through the motions
Walking through the part
Nothing seems to penetrate my heart
