American Low Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Die by Dusk 

Cover art for American Low lyrics by Cassino

This song seems like it could be a few things all in one awesome tune...It seems to me like it's a comment on poverty in the city, living a poor life and how everything just seems so pointless, right down to simple things, like the poshest scarf on the warmest day. But through it all, he's still trying to make it with the girl.
