[Verse 1]
You laugh too loud
At the teeth I hide
You tap my cage
Like it’s all a ride
Quiet woods in my chest
You keep kicking at the door
You think you know my limits
You don’t know this war
[Chorus]
Don’t poke the bear
Just let it sleep
You think I’m soft
But you’re in too deep
Don’t poke the bear
Don’t test my calm
You touch my tide
You get dragged by the storm
[Verse 2]
You call me tame
‘Cause I walk away
Mistake my mercy
For feeling afraid
You paint your threats
Like fire in the air
But you’re made of paper
I’m made of lair
[Chorus]
Don’t poke the bear
Just let it sleep
You think I’m soft
But you’re in too deep
Don’t poke the bear
Don’t test my calm
That gentle growl
Is a loaded jaw
[Bridge]
Step one closer
Hear branches crack (hey!)
That’s not thunder
That’s me snapping back
You wanted monsters?
You dragged me here
You wanted proof?
Now choke on your fear
[Chorus]
Don’t poke the bear
Just let it sleep
You think I’m weak
Till you feel these teeth
Don’t poke the bear
Don’t call my bluff
You wanted claws
You’ll bleed for your fun
