What are the words to Grenade by Bruno Mars?

Answer 1

its basically saying youd do anything for that girl but she doesnt appreciate what you do for her

Great Answer, just like to add - Deb D'Agostino is the girl in this music video, she is a model from New York City.

I think Bruno Mars, is serenading his best friend who he happens to take one for the team multiple times. However, his best friend refuses to take a grenade for him. Just like Pauly D and the Situation on Jersey Shore.

Answer 2

Well it is very simple, he loves this certain woman to bit's, he would do anything for her,he would even die for her if that was the case but the thing is that the woman doesn't feel the same way.You see they once dated but if you have watched the video she left him.The hurtful part is that she never even loved him;she would always take but never give,when they kissed her eyes where open which from my understanding is a way of keeping oneself(the one with the open eyes) from being drawn to deep feelings,if he was o be lite on fire she would watch him burn down in flames ,he did everything he could to make her happy but instead she rejected him.He tells tells her of all he could do for her,which is catch a grenade for her which is a small explosive bomb thrown by hand or fired by a missile.So obviously he was in deep love with this woman who never even cared for a second.
The song is about how you love someone but they don't feel the same for you

Answer 6

He is not talking about a specific person. Bruno Mars is a professional song-writer, as is his friend Benny Blanco (who came up with some of the original ideas that turned into this song). When professional song-writers write a song, it is sometimes about an event in their life; but at other times, it is just about a theme the writer believes the audience will relate to: in this case, it's about loving someone so intensely that you would do anything for them-- yet that person does not love you back and even seems to take you for granted.

Answer 7

dont always trust people till you know them well dont give it one look and say i love you really just actually get to know them before you get your heart broken

Answer 8

It's about someone who's so in love with this girl who doesn't love him back as much that he is willing to "catch a grenade" for her.

Answer 9

He would suffer so much pain for her but she dosn't even care about him. This is clearly evident throughout the whole song.

Answer 10

Extreme.

Crazy.

Well sung.
