fangs out - maeve noiré lyrics

Loading...

i grew up in a house where the yelling never slept
where shadows on the walls knew the secrets we couldn’t keep
dinner table felt like walking on a minefield floor
you learn quick how to listen when they slam another door

i was quiet ’cause survival don’t leave room to speak
i grew t**th from the trauma they kept calling “being weak.”
mom said don’t upset him, dad said don’t cry
so i smiled with my mouth closed, swallowing еvery why

kids at school saw the cracks, smellеd the fear through my shirt
bullies circling like vultures trying to measure my worth
and every time they pushed me, something sharp grew inside—
a warning in my chest i couldn’t tame or hide

you break a kid enough, they learn to live with the pain…
and then one day they learn to bite back again

“i smile with fangs, better watch your step.”
i grew ‘em from the nights i was taught to accept
every bruise, every word, every threat i met—
now i don’t run, i don’t flinch, i don’t break, i don’t sweat

“i smile with fangs, better watch your step.”
i ain’t heartless, i just learned to protect
the kid who had no shield, no help, no net—
now the wolf they made is the one they get
yeah, i carried that fear like a badge under my skin
flinched at sudden noises like the past would kick in
therapist said trauma makes you guard what you never had
love feels like danger when childhood felt bad

relationships got tricky — i either froze or i fought
people told me “calm down,” but they never saw the cost
i wasn’t angry at them — i was triggered by ghosts
yelling wasn’t volume, it was violence the most

but i’m learning how to soften, learning what’s real
learning fangs don’t always need to show to heal
still, when someone tries to break me, i don’t shrink or shout—
you taught me t**th, so that’s what comes out

don’t judge the bite if you don’t know the kid—
the monster’s just a mirror for the things they did

“i smile with fangs, better watch your step.”
these aren’t for hurting — they’re how i protect
the kid i was, the pain i never dissect—
i survived the storm they said i’d never outstep

“i smile with fangs, better watch your step.”
if i seem cold, it’s a trauma effect
but i’m healing, slowly, with every breath—
still the wolf they made is the one they get
i’m not savage, i’m scarred
not fearless — just tired
not heartless — just guarded
not angry — rewired

my fangs ain’t for violence, they’re pieces of me—
proof i lived through the things people never could see

“i smile with fangs, better watch your step.”
but know this truth if we ever connect:
i attack out of fear, out of instinct kept—
not to hurt, but to protect what’s left

“i smile with fangs, better watch your step.”
i’m not the villain that people suspect—
i’m the kid who survived what broke the rest
these fangs?
just the armor on my chest
