Jaws Lyrics
Stand under the stained glass and I will know it's you
The whites of your eyes burn from across the room
And I'm not here to be the saviour you long for
Only the one you don't
Are you watching me with eyes of a predator
As you move towards the door?
Show me those pretty white jaws
Show me where the delicate stops
Show me what you've lost
And why you're always taking it slow
Show me what wounds you've got
Show me love
Show me those pretty white jaws
Show me where the delicate stops
Show me what you've lost
And why you're always taking it slow
Show me what wounds you've got
Show me love, oh
Oh, and I, I believe
We are locked
Caged and always provoked
By prey left unattended
And I'm not here to be the saviour you long for
Only the one you don't
Are you watching me with eyes of a predator
As you move towards the door?
Oh, oh, oh
Show me those pretty white jaws
Show me where the delicate stops
Show me what you've lost
And why you're always taking it slow
Show me what wounds you've got
Show me love
Show me those pretty white jaws
Show me where the delicate stops
Show me what you've lost
And why you're always taking it slow
Show me what wounds you've got
Show me love
Show me those pretty white jaws
Show me where the delicate stops
Show me what you've lost
And why you're always taking it slow
Show me what wounds you've got
Show me love, oh
The whites of your eyes burn from across the room
Only the one you don't
Are you watching me with eyes of a predator
As you move towards the door?
Show me where the delicate stops
Show me what you've lost
And why you're always taking it slow
Show me what wounds you've got
Show me love
Show me those pretty white jaws
Show me where the delicate stops
Show me what you've lost
And why you're always taking it slow
Show me what wounds you've got
Show me love, oh
We are locked
Caged and always provoked
By prey left unattended
Only the one you don't
Are you watching me with eyes of a predator
As you move towards the door?
Oh, oh, oh
Show me where the delicate stops
Show me what you've lost
And why you're always taking it slow
Show me what wounds you've got
Show me love
Show me those pretty white jaws
Show me where the delicate stops
Show me what you've lost
And why you're always taking it slow
Show me what wounds you've got
Show me love
Show me those pretty white jaws
Show me where the delicate stops
Show me what you've lost
And why you're always taking it slow
Show me what wounds you've got
Show me love, oh

Vessels consistently says "Show me those pretty white jaws Show me where the delicate stops Show me what you've lost And why you're always taking it slow Show me what wounds you've got" I understand this to mean he wants to get more personal with someone most likely a romantic partner. The meaning behind the lyric "And why you're always taking it slow" could mean vessel wants to know this person's burdens and what makes them the way they are. Upon further inspection into he lyrics he's going on and on about this person but they don't seem to be responding to him or is ignoring him. This can be seen when he says "The whites of your eyes burn from across the room" meaning they're looking away from him. Another example; "Are you watching me with eyes of a predator As you move towards the door?" This suggests that this person knows vessel is looking at them and is making sure he watches them leave the room. But vessel is constantly wanting them more and more. He even asks them to "show [him] love".
