Cover art for Chicago at Night lyrics by Spoon

Perhaps it's about some kid who tried to go to the city to make it big with their art, and they just got shot down by the pretentious assholes, as you do when you go into that field.

Hence she "hit a wall" And "everybody's at a disadvantage speaking with that second language"
