WITHIN TEMPTATION

- The Howling Lyrics

We've been seeing what you wanted
Got us cornered right now
Fallen asleep from our vanity
Might cost us our lives

I hear they're getting closer
Their howls are sending chills down my spine
And time is running out now
They're coming down the hills from behind

When we start killing
It's all coming down right now
From the nightmare we've created
I want to be awakened somehow

When we start killing
It all will be falling down
From the hell that we're in
All we are is fading away

When we start killing

We've been searching all night long
But there's no trace to be found
It's like they all have just vanished
But I know they're around

I feel they're getting closer
Their howls are sending chills down my spine
And time is running out now
They're coming down the hills from behind

When we start killing
It's all coming down right now
From the nightmare we've created
I want to be awakened somehow

When we start killing
It all will be falling down
From the hell that we're in
All we are is fading away

When we start killing
When we start killing

I feel they're getting closer
Their howls are sending chills down my spine
And time is running out now
They're coming down the hills from behind

The sun is rising, the screams have gone
Too many have fallen, few still stand tall
Is this the ending of what we've begun?
Will we remember what we've done wrong?

When we start killing
It's all coming down right now
From the nightmare we've created
I want to be awakened somehow

When we start killing
It all will be falling down
From the hell that we're in
All we are is fading away

When we start killing
When we start killing
When we start killing

What is the meaning behind The Howling lyrics?


When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, Within Temptation's 'The Howling' is a metaphorical piece representing the negative consequences of actions taken and the feeling of death-like disaster. It is through the lyrics that the urgency and remorse are projected when past actions start to trap, which is similar to danger coming closer and hope being extinguished. The howling lyrics mainly focus on angst, despair, reflection, anger, and social commentary. The song also shows the technical aspects of desperation and urgency, consequences of actions and loss as well as fading existence. The lyrics encompass violence and death, with the word 'killing' as a major motif and an expression of doom lingering over. These factors imply a mature nature that might not suit the children, hence, a restricted rating is necessary.
