Howl
Dutch Party Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You had your first real come down
On the back of a greyhound
The place was packed full of people, but you couldn't hear a sound
You could feel the commotion
Just under your skin
Shits already feeling crazy now
Something about to begin

I want to howl like a jet stream
I want to bang like a drum
I want to feel the vibrations
Like we already done
You could feel the sensations
Just under your skin
Everything is going crazy now
Something about to begin

I can change
People can change
The world can change
It's so strange
I can change
The people can change
The world can change
It's so strange
But people I know can change
Change the way they play the game
People I know are strange

Like we already done
You could feel the sensation
Just under your skin

Everything is going crazy now
Something about to begin

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Dutch Party's song Howl describe a moment of transition and anticipation, as the singer experiences the aftermath of a "real come down" on a bus and prepares for something new to begin. The verse establishes a sense of disorientation and sensory overload, as the crowded bus is both visually and audibly overwhelming to the singer. They feel the "commotion" and "sensations" just under their skin, but also a growing sense of uncertainty as "something is about to begin." The chorus builds on this tension, expressing a desire to release this energy through howling and drumming, and suggests that change is possible and imminent.

The lyrics of Howl are open to some interpretation, but overall the song embodies a sense of restlessness and need for release from tension or feelings of confinement. The singer is stuck on a crowded bus and feeling overwhelmed, but desires to express themselves and connect with something bigger. The chorus suggests that this energy can be channeled into creating change or breaking free from constraints, even if it seems "strange" or unfamiliar. The song's overall tone is one of anticipation and possibility, with the promise of something new around the corner.
