この曲はギター担当の白井さんが好きな曲だそうです。
ブログ川上さんのブログの第31話:Kiss the damage解説の中では次のように書かれています。

■秘話:白井がお気に入りの曲である。アルバムの推し曲選定会議で白井だけがこの曲を(熱く)プッシュしていた。
まぁリード曲っぽくはないだろう、という事で断念はしたが。とはいえ最高な楽曲だと思う。

歌詞:[Alexandros] – Kiss The Damage

作詞:川上洋平
作曲:川上洋平

Somebody shot me with the gun
Somebody stubbed me with the knife
The blood is dropping down from
my veins and I could barely stay alive

Somebody put me down and 90
Somebody cursed me with the words
I feel my face is dying
but I try to stand and stay conscious you know

I see the sky is on the ground
I see the rain is rising up

「明日」にどう挑むかを
「私」をどう生さるかを
形になっていないまま自動的に古くなっていく

「過去」の自分が愛しく
「未来」の自分が見れずに
「現在」止まったままで自分自身がupdateされずに

Who would be my savior?
Angels or demons
Or my silent neighbors

Toss the coin to find out
Heads or tales
I should choose what’s my move

Undemeath the star of light I play my guitar
And then dive into the river of the tears
that I cried

I feel the pain is hurting me again
But I know I’ll find my way out to survive

I’m gonna believe in myself tonight
I’m gonna believe that
I will survive and survive and survive until the end

I try to forget the scar on my face
But I can’t completely recover the pain
And the pain and the pain
So let me kiss the pain

信頼し切った人に
いとも簡単に裏切られて
心を閉ざして保険掛けて
傷がつかないように生きている

I thought that I become so strong
I haven’t cried for years and never been wrong
But I feel those tears are almost full
And I lost my way to express my feeling now

Who would be the savior?
Or do me a favor?
Can’t ask my neighbor

Just toss the coin to find out
Heads or tales
I should choose
Wear my shoes

I’m gonna travel so far
Escape with my car
Coz the stars in the sky will never shine on my guitar

I feel the pain is hurting me again
But I know I don’t need annoying paper cranes

Can’t Stop mishaps to be on the Way
But I’m gonna believe that l will be trying
I will try l will try to kill the pain

I try to forget the scar on my face
But the damage won’t be fading out
From the soul from the soul from the soul

Just kiss the damage you’re holding
Nobody will be noticing the pain
Kiss the damage you’re holding
Coz you got no time to die tonight

I’m gonna believe in myself tonight
l’m gonna believe that l will survive
and survive and survive until the end

I try to forget the scar on my face
But the damage won’t be fading out
From the soul from the soul from the soul

Just kiss the damage you’re holding
Nobody will be noticing the pain
Kiss the damage you’re holding
Coz you got no time to die tonight
