Grenade
Within Temptation Lyrics
Easy come, easy go
That's just how you live, oh
Take, take, take it all,
But you never give
Should have known you were trouble from the first kiss,
Had your eyes wide open
Why were they open?
Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, you did
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) oooh, oh
I would go through all this pain,
Take a bullet straight through my brain,
Yes, I would die for ya baby
But you won't do the same...
No, no, no, no
Black, black, black and blue beat me till I'm numb
Tell the devil I said "hey" when you get back to where you're from.
Mad boy, bad boy, that's just what you are,
Yeah, you'll smile in my face then rip the breaks 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) oooh, oh
I would go through all this pain,
Take a bullet straight through my brain!
Yes, I would die for ya baby
But you won't do the same...
If my body was on fire,
Ooh you'd watch me burn down in flames.
You said you loved me you're a liar
'Cause you never, ever, ever did baby!
...But darling
I'll still catch a grenade for ya
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) oooh, oh
I would go through all this pain...
Take a bullet straight through my brain,
Yes, I would die for ya 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
