I don’t think anyone I know would catch a grenade for me except for my mom or dad. But at the same time, how often do you come across a grenade? The thing is, it doesn’t make sense to ask what I just asked because the song is using metaphors. I don’t believe the song was meant to be literal. Obviously David.
Throwing my hand on a blade…I’m not sure if I’d do that for anyone. Too painful. Bruno Mars would though…he must be crazy in love that he’d do all that painful stuff - all for a girl who doesn’t love him back to the same degree he does. I guess some would call that stupid, but I think I can somewhat understand that kind of love. It’s like some parents have for their children…or my love for Chick Fil A. After all, the song does say at the end of the chorus “I’d die for you baby”. I would totally die for Chick Fil A if it were a living human being that tasted good.
Wouldn’t it suck to love someone who doesn’t love you back? That would be the worst feeling ever. Gosh. I don’t think I’m even capable of such thing because I’m too controlling of my feelings. Sometimes it’s not a good thing. A protective measure I guess from the past. People let you down in life and that’s why people build walls.
Also the “jump in front of a train for you” line puts gruesome images from “Faces of Death” in my head. Gross. Same with the line “bullet straight through my brain”. Bad bad bad.
These are my ramblings inspired by “Grenade”. Signing off. BOOM!!!!!!!
