show one's teeth: to act in an angry or threatening manner.

lyrics

I was hoping not to find you,
Saying you wanted to kiss me,
I was oh so very lonely,
But not that much,
I was drowning on my own dear,
Long before you tried to save me,
So before you suffocate me,
Let me float,
Hey hey I’ve been down here a while,
Hey hey don’t be fooled by my smile,
I’ve seen some shit you’ve never seen,
Seen the worst that people can be,
I’ll smile for you but don’t you make me show my teeth,
I was horrified to find you,
Expecting me to fix you,
I would love it all away like noooo,
I been working on my own shit,
I don’t have the time for this,
I’ve been staying like sunshine on my own,
Hey hey I’ve been down here a while,
Hey hey don’t be fooled by my smile,
I’ve seen some shit you’ve never seen,
Seen the worst that people can be,
I’ll smile for you but don’t you make me show my teeth,
A stack of comic books, her prom dress on the floor,
I don't need compliments or worn out metaphors,
The girls that cycle through your bed take care of you,
And I won't be the next to be ensnared by you,
By you,
Hey hey I’ve been down here a while,
Hey hey don’t be fooled by my smile,
I’ve seen some shit you won’t believe,
Seen the worst that people can be,
I’ll smile for you but don’t you make me show my,
Hey hey I’ve been down here a while,
Hey hey don’t be fooled by my smile,
I’ve seen some shit you’ve never seen,
Seen the worst that people can be,
I’ve seen some shit you’ve never seen,
Seen the best that people can be,
I’ll smile for you but don’t you make me show my teeth.
