"The Howling" lyrics - WITHIN TEMPTATION

WITHIN TEMPTATION
"The Howling"
(Sharon den Adel / Danielle Gibson / Robert Westerholt)

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

[Pre-Chorus:]
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

[Chorus:]
When we start killing
It's all coming down right now
From the nightmare we've created
I want to be awakened somehow
(I want to be awakened right now)

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

[Pre-Chorus:]
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

[Chorus:]
When we start killing
It's all coming down right now
From the nightmare we've created
I want to be awakened somehow
(I want to be awakened right now)

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

[Pre-Chorus:]
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

[Bridge:]
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?

[Chorus:]
When we start killing
It's all coming down right now
From the nightmare we've created
I want to be awakened somehow
(I want to be awakened right now)

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
