Grenade

Easy come easy go

That's just how you live

Asa sighed to himself; it had been there all along. It was the way she was. He had just been too blind to see it.

Oh take, take, take it all

But you never give

He had poured his heart out to her, defended her, and yet she had never done anything for him in return. Just that sweet, cool, attitude.

Should've known you were trouble from the first kiss

Had your eyes wide open

Why were they open?

He had felt it in his gut that first night when he had kissed her, enjoying the feel of her lips; then to open his eyes and find hers already open. Yet he had merely dismissed and didn't think about it.

Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash

You tossed it in the trash yes you did

When he had asked her about finding his love notes, flowers, and chocolates in the trash she had just waved it away with her hand and a little "Oh, you silly boy," and he being the idiot that he was didn't think about it again.

To give me all your love

Is all I ever asked for

What you don't understand is

I'd catch grenade for you

Through my head on a blade for you

I'd jump in front of a train for you

You know I'd do anything for you

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

He braved Torsson's winds for her , even if he knew that Sage's dreaded spirits wouldn't be far behind, yet she never said anything to congragulate him. He had taken so many blows for her , and yet he had doubts that she would ever do the same for him.

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

Bad woman, bad woman that's just what you are

Yeah you'll smile in my face then rip the brakes out of my car

When they had failed to stop Bone and his friends that night she had taken her anger out on the only available source; him. When she had beaten the crap out of him she merely smiled at him and said, bye Asa.

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 for, but what you don't understand is

I'd catch a grenade for you

Throw my head on a blade for you

I'd jump in front of a train for you

You know I'd do anything for you

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

He would gladly lay down his life a million times for her. The part that hurt the worst was the fact that she knew it, and she used it.

If my body was on fire ooh

You would watch it burn down in flames

You said you loved me, you're a liar

Cause you never, ever ever did baby

Now she was gone. And Asa could only lie there crying. Crying because he wanted her back and crying because he hated her.
