It was all, for him

Summary:

Angsty song lyrics about Tim Drake as Robin.

My brain forced this. Enjoy

Work Text:

For lost words and lost hearts,
I can’t help but fall apart
Without you
Without you

I dragged my body and my mind into an overdrive
‘I’m okay’ I say as I make another sacrifice

Do tears and blood still matter?
If no one sees them fall.
I got an oath to keep but wish someone would see my scars.

Don’t stop now! I scream.
It was all, for him.
Can’t let the man become the monster,
let the memory turn grim
And if I wear anothers face, who’d even know?

For broken bones and harsh word
I can’t allow my mind to break
Without you
Without you

I’m taking hits, taking strays and taking screams alike
‘I’m okay’ I say as I take the acid and the bite

Do smiles and friendship matter?
If no one knows my name.
I smile and joke but wonder if this could be ours.

‘Don’t stop now!’ I scream
It was all for him.
Can’t let the man become the monster,
Let the memory turn grim
And if I wear anothers face, who’d even know?

For spoken lies and silent truths
I can’t trust me anymore.
Without you
Without you

I’m feeling lost feeling fake, who am I anyway.
‘I’m okay’ I lie as I fight the scream back down

Do I just keep on acting?
If I lost who I am?
I watch the blood dry, your name written on the wall.

‘Please stop now!’ I scream
It was all, a dream.
The broken boy he blames the man.
The monster is now him.
