Grenade
Lyrics:
[English]
Easy come, easy go, that's just how you live
Oh, take, take, take it all but you never give
Should've known you was trouble from the first kiss
Had your eyes wide open, ah, why were they open?
Gave you all I had, and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is
I'd catch a grenade for ya (yeah-yeah-yeah)
Throw my hand on a blade for ya (yeah-yeah-yeah)
I'd jump in front of a train for ya (yeah-yeah-yeah)
You know I'd do anything for ya (yeah-yeah-yeah)
Oh-oh, oh, I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same
No, no, no, no
Uh, black, black, black and blue, beat me 'til I'm numb
Tell the devil I said "hey" when you get back to where you're from
Madwoman, bad woman, that's just what you are
Yeah, you'll smile in my face then rip the brakes out my car
Gave you all I had, and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, yes, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is
I'd catch a grenade for ya (yeah-yeah-yeah)
Throw my hand on a blade for ya (yeah-yeah-yeah)
I'd jump in front of a train for ya (yeah-yeah-yeah)
You know I'd do anything for ya (yeah-yeah-yeah)
Oh-oh, oh, I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same (no)
If my body was on fire (no)
Ooh, you'd watch me burn down in flames (no)
You said you loved me, you're a liar
'Cause you never, ever, ever did, baby
...
Uh, but darling, I'd still catch a grenade for ya (yeah-yeah-yeah)
Throw my hand on a blade for ya (yeah-yeah-yeah)
I'd jump in front of a train for ya (yeah-yeah-yeah)
You know I'd do anything for ya (yeah-yeah-yeah)
Oh-oh, oh-oh, I would go through all this pain, yeah
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same
No, you won't do the same
You wouldn't do the same
Ooh, you'll never do the same
No, no, no, no
...
