(Based upon the song 'Idle Town' by Conan Gray)

Robin had always had such a deep hatred for Hawkins. It was a rot that buried itself deep under her skin and coursed through her veins like an infection. It was the things that reminded her of the past; like the creak of the door and the lack of her mother's screams that night.

The squeak of her bike chains and the rust that fell with each peddle. The hallways that seemed so uninvitingly vast- the same ones that desperately begged to be filled with hearts that were less empty than its own.
Ones that weren't hollow, ones that weren't lost.

She hated the atmosphere, the air, the flow of the rivers that mimicked the blue streaks within her arms, and she had even grown to hate the things that had filled her soul with such beauty and compassion beforehand.

The orange of the autumnal leaves, the blanket of them covering the floor after only a few weeks of attachment,
The birds that would live and then die,

The robins that would border her garden.

So, why stay?
Why not escape and go wherever your mind takes you?
Why not run and never stop?

And to that question, and all alike, the answer would always stay the same;

Because you're the only thing that's making me want to stay.
