How Do You Talk To A Star? Lyrics by Everybody’s Worried About Owen

Nunemaker’s Swingset

2023

[Verse 1]
How do you talk to a star?
Keep your body nice and shielded from all that heat
How do you show them who you are
Without the radiation paralyzing the deepest parts of me?
It's funny how you spent the days
Being a beacon for me and my hop-scotch plays
I got a desk drawer full of letters that I never sent you
'Cause you were just too far away
One card and a table in the corner
White boots and a tongue that's feeling extra dry
Then we eclipse, my mind is heavy, gravel in my alveoli
I wish I could take in your warmth but I go
[Chorus]
Cold, cold
[Verse 2]
There's something caught in your teeth
A smile bigger than Andromeda
Unexplored potential beckons me
Into a Hans Zimmer aria
But the thermosphere is burning up
And I've a penchant for cowardice
Ruddy cheeks as I look up
At the estate in my head that you founded, and I go
[Chorus]
Cold, cold
[Bridge]
And everybody has a purpose in someone else's life
And you have given me more than I know what to do with
The notebook paper, the baseball cap, the bowling alley at midnight, cheap beer on tap
And you are a lithograph, sketching my history
Under the floodlights you look more like God to me
The right to fuck up, the way to talk, three shots of tequila, the speed to walk
[Outro]
And I guess what I'm trying to say here is thank you
But I go
Cold
