Howling At Nothing
Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats Lyrics

Some are waving it around
Some people are waving something around, but it's not clear what it is

Someone carried me home
Someone helped me get home, possibly because I was too drunk or tired

One was never noticed sleeping on the floor
Someone was sleeping on the floor and no one seemed to notice or care

But I know we were there
Despite the chaos and confusion, I know we were present and involved in the experience

Some were playing in a round
Some people were playing a game or activity together

Some were dipping so low
Some people were really getting into the music and dancing

It never seemed to matter as the night slipped away
As time passed and the night went on, people became more immersed in the experience and less concerned about the details

'Cause there was soul in the air
The atmosphere was charged with emotion and energy

We were howlin at the moon
We were caught up in the moment and making noise, perhaps as a way of expressing our emotions

We were shaking our hips
We were dancing and moving to the music

Danced until we flat out falling into bed
We danced for so long and got so tired that we ended up collapsing into bed

But I won't let you go
Despite the exhaustion and chaos of the night, I want to hold onto this experience and not let it go

So, let me in or let me down
Either let me fully participate in this experience or reject me outright, but don't leave me hanging

Let me lay here so slow
Let me rest and savor this experience, taking it in slowly

Baby just keep holding got to move our feet
Keep holding onto me and let's keep dancing and moving, even if we're tired

'Cause you know it ain't end
This experience isn't over yet, there's still more to come

Step it in or step it out
Either participate fully or remove yourself from this situation

Cut it all in and run
Embrace the chaos and experience fully even if it leads to something unexpected or intense

Kept on till it mattered baby I don't even see
We kept going and pushing ourselves until the experience had reached its climax or peak, even if it was difficult to perceive it in the moment

We were howling at the moon
We were fully caught up in the moment, expressing ourselves and our emotions

We were shaking our hips
We were dancing and moving to the music

Danced until we flat out falling into bed
The exhaustion and intensity of the experience led us to collapse into bed

Said I won't let you go
Despite the end of the night and the exhaustion it brought, I want to hold onto this experience and not let it slip away

We were howling at the moon
We were fully immersed in the experience, expressing ourselves and feeling alive

We were shaking our hips
We were dancing and moving with abandon

Danced until we flat out falling into bed
Our bodies gave out from exhaustion and the intensity of the experience

Said I won't let you go
Despite the end of the night and the passing of time, I want to hold onto this feeling and this moment
