Chapter 3 of Damsay: Songs For Us. This chapter is based off "You Won't Ever Feel a Thing" by The Script. (:

Damian's POV

I've been kicked right down,

I've been spat in the face,

I've been pulled, weighed down

To the lowest place

I've been lied to, shamed

I have been disgraced

Been ex-communicated from every holy place

I've been beat up and robbed

I've been left for dead

For the way I look

For the things I say

America was a lovely country, from the postcards, but when your Irish and don't really fit in anywhere, it can be a living hell, especial if you go to McKinley High School. Slushies met you at every turn, you have to bring a change of clothes. Glee club helps, but it calls for more bullying. In some of the churches here, they won't even let me walk through the door. They've stolen my shoes and beat me up pretty bad, just because I smiled too much and had an Irish accent.

When trouble thinks it's found us

The world founds down around us

I promise baby you won't ever,

You won't ever feel a thing.

Lindsay was the new girl, she took my breath away. On her first day she got slushied. It broke my heart. So I went and I helped her, I cleaned her off and let her borrow my extra shirt. After that we became friends, then something more, and from that day on, I promised her and myself that she won't ever feel a thing.

'Cause I will take it on the chin

Eh, for you

So lay your cuts and bruises over my skin

I promise you won't feel a thing

'Cause everything the world could throw

I'll stand in front, I'll take the blow for you

For you.

One day I was walking to Lindsay's locker when I heard someone say, "Come on, leave your boyfriend, or I'll hurt you. He can't do anything, he's too weak. If you don't come with me, something bad will happen to you." I heard Lindsay crying. I ran over to help her.

"HEY!" I said as I pulled him off her. My beautiful Lindsay had a black eye. Fuck the guy that did it to her. I punched him and we started fighting Lindsay was crying. She ran away and came back with Mr. Shue.

"Hey, hey, hey!" he said as he pulled the other guy and me apart. "What happened?" he asked. "That bastard hurt Lindsay!" I said. Mr. Shue looked at Lindsay, "Is this true?" he asked. Lindsay just nodded.

"How did it go?" Lindsay asked as I walked out of the office. "Fine, the camera's saw what happened and he's expelled. He won't be coming back to hurt you Linds," I said. "Damo, why did you do it?" she asked. "Do what?" "Protect me. You could have ran away and turned back. Why did you fight?" she said.

"Lindsay, I love you. I promised that if anything happened to you, I would do whatever I could to stop it. I won't let anything hurt you." I said. It took me a while to realize that I had told her that I loved her for the first time. "You love me?" she said, her eyes ever so beautiful, even with the black eye. "Yes, I love you." "I love you too, Damian," she said and we kissed. If only I could take the pain from the black eye away.

I've been cleared off the streets

I've been left in the cold

Had my dreams held up

Had them shot full of holes

I've been laughed at, burnt, beat and butt of the joke

I've been lit up in flames

I've gone down in smoke

I've been stabbed in the back

While they promised the earth

Tried to keep my head high

For all I am worth

I remember for a while, when I first came to America, I was homeless. People passed by, but they left me in the cold. I had such big dreams when I got here, but no one cared. They all laughed at me and my accent. I was bullied and they were the kings of the school. But I still smiled, it was the only thing I had left.

Aside I'm double blazing

I know when war is raging

I promise baby you won't ever,

You won't ever feel a thing.

Everyone looked at me different since the fight with that other guy. I knew something was coming, and it did. They took me behind the dumpsters and beat the living shit out of me, but at least they didn't hurt Lindsay.

'Cause I will take it on the chin

Eh, for you

So lay your cuts and bruises over my skin

I promise you won't feel a thing

'Cause everything the world could throw

I'll stand in front, I'll take the blow for you

For you.

One day after her parent's had a really big fight Lindsay came to me. I held her in my arms, she shouldn't know pain. "Damian, I don't know what to do! They've never fought like that before, I think it's all because of me," she cried into my chest. "Love, it would never be because of you. You are wonderful, don't ever think you're not," I breathed into her ear. All I wanted was to be in her place, feel her pain, I don't want her to feel pain.

Yeah.

And if I fall here

At least you know my dear that I would die for you

Promise you won't ever feel a thing

At least you know my dear that I would die for you

Promise you won't ever feel a thing

If ever a bullet came aimed at Lindsay, I would jump in front of it. I would die for her. I want her to never feel pain.

'Cause I will take it on the chin

Eh, for you

So lay your cuts and bruises over my skin

I promise you won't feel a thing

'Cause everything the world could throw

I'll stand in front, I'll take the blow for you

For you.

If ever a car came her way, I'd push her out the way. I would go through any amount of pain for her, she was worth it. Most of all I didn't want her to feel any pain.

Yeah everything the world could throw

I'll take the sticks, I'll take the stones

For you

Well that's it. Thanks for reading! (: R&R please!
