Run away, run away if you can't speak. Turn a page on a world that you don't need.

Tears streamed from my eyes as I threw together a bag of clothes. It was evident to everyone , I don't know why I could see it. I didn't belong in this world of the Transformers.

Wide awake and you're scared that you won't come down now

I was so lost in myself that I couldn't see what was happening around me. I couldn't see nor understand the complexity of what was happening, and I ruined it.

Didn't I tell you you were gonna break down
Didn't I warn you, didn't I warn you
Better take it easy, try to find a way out
Better start believing in yourself

I believed in myself; believed that I was an utter failure and disappointment. All I was capable of doing was hurting those that I truly loved and cared for. And I was told that this world would either make or break me. Guess I just didn't listen.

We build it up, we tear it down
We leave our pieces on the ground
We see no end, we don't know how
We are lost and we're falling
Hold onto me
You're all I have, all I have
Hold onto me
You're all I have, all I have

I tried to give my all and be the best that I could to the Autobots, doing my part. But all I did was ruin everything. Now all I was doing was falling, falling far and hard from everything and everyone that I knew.

Now and then there's a light in the darkness
Feel around 'til you find where your heart went
There's a weight in the air but you can't see why, why

Right now my head and my heart were fighting each other. My head told me the logical thing to do was face what I had wronged, but my heart was too afraid of the consequence and getting yelled at again. I just couldn't bare to see the pained look on his face again.

Didn't I tell you you were gonna break down
Didn't I want you, everybody wants you
Tell me what you're needing, give into your bleeding
Never any feeling for yourself

As I picked a picture frame up off of the night stand, warmth from a memory tried to comfort me, to no avail. I didn't deserve happiness after what I had done.

We build it up, we tear it down
We leave our pieces on the ground
We see no end, we don't know how
We are lost and we're falling
Hold onto me
You're all I have, all I have
Hold onto me
You're all I have, all I have

Ironhide was the best of me, how could I hurt him like this? What was going through my head? I needed him. He was all that I had left, I needed to hold on, but I needed him to hold onto me as well. The question was would he?

Didn't I tell you you were gonna break down
Didn't I warn you, didn't I warn you

I needed to find a way out of this, but was running really the best option? Was it really my only option. Could I just talk to them? Would they listen?

Better take it easy, try to find a way out
Better start believing in yourself

No, they wouldn't. There was no other way. I just needed to get out of here. It was better for everyone, better for me.

We build it up, we tear it down
We leave our pieces on the ground
We see no end, we don't know how
We are lost and we're falling

With all of my essentials packed away, I crept to my door and peered out, seeing that the lights in the main hangar were off and no one was out there, save for the Autobots sitting along one wall in recharge, but there was some equipment in the way. If I just stayed behind it then they wouldn't see me.

Hold onto me, you're all I have, all I have
Hold onto me, you're all I have, all I have
Hold onto me, you're all I have, all I have

I slipped out the door and closed it silently behind me. I felt in my side pocket on the book bag, feeling the keys to the jeep that I was taking. All I had to do was sneak quietly across the floor, risking exposure if I made the smallest of noises. I sucked in a breath and squared my shoulders back, walking across the open floor in the pitch black. Trying to use what little light my eyes could grab as they adjusted. I was able to stop myself from running into one of the desks. I turned to face the direction that the Autobots were in, feeling a tug in my heart.

Can you hold onto me?

Then I turned away...... right into a pole. I yelped out in pain, my hands immediately lifting to my face and pinching and rubbing my nose. The noise of me yelping as well as slamming into the large metal pole also caused the Autobots to wake up. Go me.

Can you hold onto me?

I ducked behind the nearest desk and listened as they turned on their lights and searched the room, calling out for whoever was here to come out of hiding. But I didn't. Instead I looked at the small human door leading out of the

Run away, run away if you can't speak
