This song is directed at a future version of himself. The chorus is based on the sound of his dogs howling at the wind during a Vermont blizzard. The loneliness of that noise at that moment is what drove Kahan to write this song answering the questions about what the future may hold.
Howling Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Where to begin?
Oh, let's pretend we never met
So I can disappear a moment
Been trying to swim with both my hands behind my back
My dear I always feared the ocean
And, somehow, this one word in my mouth that's left unspoken
[Pre-Chorus]
I won't admit my parents split when I got sick
But I refuse to be a burden
And I said
[Chorus]
Is there something keeping me here for the minute, darling?
Did you find the key and what is the meaning of it?
'Cause honey, sometimes I feel this emptiness
Howling out
Is there something keeping me here for the minute, darling?
Did I lose my mind and and am I still looking for it?
'Cause I don't know why I feel this emptiness
Howling out
Howling out
[Verse 2]
"You’re not alone" the world is small
And I am sick of all the talk of finding purpose
Love comes and goes
But the big black dog, he trails along
Am I the only one who knows him?
And now
And somehow, I gained 15 pounds, but lost my focus
And I suffocate things slow
Until I'm just the black fly circling my bullshit
Ooh
[Chorus]
Is there something keeping me here for the minute, darling?
Did you find the key and what is the meaning of it?
Honey, sometimes I feel this emptiness
Howling out
Is there something keeping me here for the minute, darling?
Did you lose my mind and and am I still looking for it?
I don't know why I feel this emptiness
Howling out
Howling out
[Bridge]
Deep blue, deep blue
05072
Deep blue, deep blue
05072
[Verse 3]
Where to begin?
Oh, let's pretend we never met
So I can disappear a moment
I've been trying to swim with both my hands behind my back
My dear I always feared the ocean
And, somehow, this one word in my mouth that's left unspoken
And I said
[Chorus]
Is there something keeping me here for the minute, darling?
Did you find the key and what is the meaning of it?
'Cause, honey, sometimes I feel this emptiness
Howling out
Tell me one thing keeping me here for the minute, honey
But if I leave you now then what's out there waiting for me?
I don't know why I feel this emptiness
Howling out
