Robin had woken up to the lack of warmth of the two boys that were once there before. They probably had to go off on a mission. He got up wincing slightly and made his way to the door and fiddled with stuff

"Still locked in I see" Robin sighed putting his head to the cold metal door because of a headache

After getting the energy to push off the door he climbed back onto the bed swinging his short legs over the side, and started humming. Superman, Martian Manhunter and Green Lantern were all looking over him

"Is he humming?" Hal asked moving closer to the screen, superman turned up the volume for the audio of the camera

"Shadows settle on the place that you left, our minds are troubled by the emptiness" Robin began so soothingly sing

"No, he's..singing" Superman looked mesmerized

"Destroy the middle, its a waste of time. From the perfect start to the finish line" Now a few more of the leaguers came in to listen

"And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones, cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs. Setting fire to our insides for fun, collecting names of the lovers that went wrong, the lovers that went wrong"

Most of the league was in the room by this point and were captivated by Robins voice

"We are the reckless, we are the wild youth. Chasing visions of our futures, one day we'll reveal the truth, that one will die before he gets there"

"Wow" Hal breathed out "who knew he had it in him"

"And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones, cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone. We're setting fire to our insides for fun, collecting pictures from the flood that wrecked our home it was a flood that wrecked this home" Robin flopped his head against his pillow and sang the last line he could

"And you caused it"

Robin took a shakey breathe as memories slowly came back, he was about to cry but made a frightened noise as he was pulled out of his thoughts by the door opening and Batman slowly walking in quietly singing back

"And if your in love, then you are the lucky one. Cause most of us are bitter over someone, setting fire to our insides for fun. To distract our hearts from ever missing them. But I'm forever missing him" Batman sang, well sang/spoke, but went over to Robin pulling him into a hug

The league members were completely shocked, at a lot. Robin having an amazing sining voice, Batman singing, and Batman surprisingly having a good singing voice. They were touched.
