Damon couldn't think.
All he knew was that he had to get away. He couldn't take it anymore. His grip on the steering wheel was so tight that his knuckles were starting to turn white. It was raining and his car was getting harder to control.
He stared forward, trying to ignore the urge to turn around. He was driving so fast he could barely see the city lights as they flew by, disapearing in the rear view mirror. He could feel anger and adrenaline boiling through his veins. He knew exactly what would happen next.
Damon reached over to turn on the radio. Heavy metal flooded out of the cars speakers and overwhelmed his ears. But he didn't care. He found himself thinking about all he had to deal with in his life. Every crack in his bones. Every stitch in his skin. Every image he could have lived without.

Hi! I'm here to leave a quick review!!
Anyway let's get right to it,
Oh, well this is starting off on a really stressful situation by the looks of things right there, and you can't even accurately say if its because of the clear mental toll going on here with the whole needing to get away situation or just the sheer difficulty of driving around in the conditions on display right here...overall, this looks to just be heading towards a major disaster right here...nothing good seems to be in the future for this person.
Well, this person is definitely trying to run away from something as indicated by the driving going on at the moment, and I get the feeling this very reckless attitude that's going on here is a bit on purpose, the last line of this paragraph certainly makes you think of a very distinct potential ending here.
Well, the fact that he's kind of remembering the horrible moments from his life and how he drowns out the sound around him with those very loud speakers seems to suggest one final and fatal accident scheduled for the very near future here...and well, its a chilling note to end this story on here.
Overall, a powerful start, and I think it definitely got my attention enough for me to want to know what happens next here.
Aaaaand that's it for this one.
As always remember to take what you think was helpful and forget the rest.
Stay Safe

Hmmmmm.....Well what you have so far is good. It's a fast start and that can be tricky because eventualyy you will have to slow the story down and that is something that must be done with great grace. I like the part were you said "Every stich in his skin." I thought that was original. I encourage you to keep at this story. I am intrested to see where it goes.
Just one thing- that apostrophe in "cars'" should be moved. I doubt anyone can drive two cars.
Thank you. I don't think anyone can either
Hey there! I'm here to review this for you. This will be short, however.
Nice, but short. It was a bit too short for me because I didn't really understand what was going on, however. Where was he going? What was happening? Expansion on that would be very useful.
One thing that'd really help this piece, I believe, is a tad more showing rather than telling. All it is, is just instead of saying, "He said, feeling embarrassed." is when you say, "he said, his eyes darting around the room unsure where to focus while avoiding her gaze. He could feel his cheeks burn." Then you don't feel like you're saying "he did this and that" which makes it boring. Showing makes it more interesting when you do it at the interesting bit.
So here, for example, you could say that he "could feel his hands yearning to rip out the smug look on their face, itching to watch the blood spill." See how it's more interesting that way?
Nitpicks:
Okay, so that's it from me! I hope I helped you out and that I wasn't too harsh
Keep writing,
Blues.
I appreciate your help! Thank you, so much. I'll try to be more "show not tell" in my work.
