Dick was sat in his room, staring at a picture on the wall of him and Bruce. Him and Bruce just got in a massive argument about Bruce training and being Robin which ended up with Bruce telling Dick he was fired from being Robin and that Dick was grounded until further notice.  Dick scrunched up his face trying not to cry.

Don't be upset or mad at all
Don't feel regret or sad at all
Hey, I'm still a part of the family Wayne
And I'm fine, I am totally fine

He looks down at his combo mask in his hand

I will stand on the side as you shine
I'm not fine, I'm not fine

He gets up and walks around his room

I can't save the world
I can't make the baddies scared
I can't take another night up in my room
Waiting on a miracle

I can't stop the joker
Can't work on my own or lead the team
Can't keep down the unspoken invisible pain
Always waiting on a miracle, a miracle

He looks outside his window

Always walking alone
Always wanting for more
Like I'm still at the circus longing to shine
Like all of you shine

Dick scrunched his eyes up not facing the window anymore

All I need is a change
All I need is a chance
All I know is I can't stay on the side
Open your eyes, open your eyes, open your eyes

He opens his eyes and spots his old suit and his backpack. He runs around and starts packing everything he needs into the bag (including the suit).

I would save the world
make the baddies scared and runaway
Someone please just let me know, where do I go?
I am waiting on a miracle, a miracle

I would lead a team
Show this family something new
Who I am inside, so what can I do?
I'm sick of waiting on a miracle, so here I go

He finished packing before going to his desk and writing a goodbye letter to Bruce and Alfred.

I am ready, come on, I'm ready
I've been patient, and steadfast, and steady
trust me now as you trusted me all those years ago
When you gave me a miracle

He climbs onto his balcony

Am I too late for a miracle?

"goodbye Bruce, Alfred" He whispers before dispearing into the night.
