Damage

I won't be the damage
let it take someone else tonight
if i hide my head in the corner
if i shut my eyes tightly
if i hold my breath
maybe it will pass over me
leave my skin intact

let it rage over someone else' heart
let it devour like fire
all consuming
let it break like glass
drown like water

hide me from myself
shelter me from my own hand
