Star-crossed Lyrics – Kacey Musgraves
Star-crossed Lyrics
[Intro: Kacey Musgraves]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
[Verse: Kacey Musgraves]
Let me set the scene
Two lovers ripped right at the seams
They woke up from the perfect dream
And then the darkness came
I signed the papers yesterday
You came and took your things away
I moved out of the home we made
And gave you back your name
[Chorus: Kacey Musgraves]
What have we done?
Did we fly too high just to get burned by the sun?
No one's to blame
'Cause we called all the angels to save us
Called them by name
But I guess they got lost
Star-crossed
[Outro: Kacey Musgraves]
(Star-crossed, star-crossed, star-crossed, star-crossed)
(Star-crossed, star-crossed, star-crossed, star-crossed)
(Star-crossed, star-crossed, star-crossed, star-crossed)
(Star-crossed, star-crossed, star-crossed, star-crossed)
Star-crossed, ah
Ah, star-crossed
Star-crossed, ah
Star-crossed
Star-crossed
Star-crossed
Star-crossed Lyrics Meaning
The lyrics of "Star-crossed" by Kacey Musgraves depict the aftermath of a romantic relationship that has fallen apart. The song explores the pain and heartbreak experienced by two lovers who once had a perfect connection but are now dealing with the darkness that has entered their lives. The title "Star-crossed" suggests that their fate may have been written in the stars, implying a destined yet troubled love story. The lyrics convey a sense of regret and reflection on the choices made, ultimately leading to the dissolution of the relationship.
[Verse]
In this section, Musgraves sets the scene of a relationship unraveling. The lovers, once inseparable, have faced a rupture. The reference to signing papers and returning possessions symbolizes the formal end of their union. Moving out from the shared home and returning the partner's name signify a conscious and tangible separation, emphasizing the gravity of the situation.
[Chorus]
The chorus reflects on the consequences of their actions. The mention of flying too high and getting burned by the sun suggests that their aspirations for a perfect love may have been too ambitious, resulting in a painful downfall. Calling on angels and their subsequent absence implies seeking external help or divine intervention, but in the end, the plea goes unanswered. The phrase "star-crossed" is reiterated, underscoring the idea that their love was predestined for hardship.
[Outro]
The outro repeats the term "star-crossed" while adding an emotive "ah." This repetition reinforces the theme of fate playing a pivotal role in the relationship's demise. The refrain becomes a somber acknowledgment of the inevitable, as the singer resigns to the fact that their love was, in the end, star-crossed—doomed from the start. The simplicity of the outro's lyrics echoes the profound sadness and acceptance of the situation.
