Night After Night
spoon Lyrics

Now when she went to chicago that night she faced a wall
She encountered a barrier when she went to Chicago that evening.

And she woke up outside with all those leaves in her mouth
She found herself outside with leaves in her mouth after passing out.

And felt the pall
She felt a sense of gloom and despondency.

And all night the rain came on down
It rained throughout the entire night.

But then she'd never been to chicago at night before the fall
She had never been to Chicago at night prior to this disastrous incident.

And it don't stop not at all
The rain continues to fall relentlessly.

It falls all around
The rain falls on everything in the vicinity.

In the city
This is taking place in an urban area.

Hits the ground
The rain falls and lands on the ground.

And now everybody's at disadvantage
Everyone is at a disadvantage.

Speaking with their second language
They are struggling to communicate.

She'd never been there before they went and set up the wall
She had not visited that location until the obstruction was introduced.

And though nobody'd expected much from this reinvention
No one anticipated a significant outcome from the recent changes.

She still broke right down after all
In spite of this, she still suffered a complete emotional breakdown.

Because she knew that it was all over and we'd hit a wall
She realized it was the end of the road and we were at an impasse.

And like the fall this was all
Similar to autumn, this was the end of a cycle.

Now it's all around
The feeling of defeat is all-encompassing.

On the ground
This is taking place on the street level.

And I never been to the wall
The singer hasn't personally experienced this obstruction before.

Never been to the wall
The artist has never encountered such a barrier.

Never been to the wall
The artist has never been blocked off in this way.

Never been to the wall
This is a new experience for the artist.

Never been to the wall
The singer has never encountered this kind of obstacle.

Never been to the wall
The artist is emphasizing that they have not had this experience.

Never been to the wall
The singer hasn't had the opportunity to overcome this sort of impediment.
