Chicago at Night Lyrics

Cover art for Chicago at Night lyrics by Spoon

i think the writer just has a connection with Chicago, probably not that it's so sinister a city. all cities have underworlds for people to find trouble in. this song really sounds like imagery of death, some naive gal running away to the city but ending up dead. the leaves imagery & the pall imagery, that's what i see. his voice for this song is amazing. headphones make it even better.
