"Been Too Long" lyrics

"Been Too Long"

Don't fill your head with dreams
Just get back to reality
And that's what they said to me
I'd rather starve for eternity

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Playing to no one in the empty bars
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
And we are who we are and we got this far

Shooting star
It's been too long
It's been too long
Shooting star
Where have you gone?
Where have you gone?
Selling all our souls
Empty pot of gold
No one even knows who we are
Shooting star
It's been too long
It's been too long

Always gone, no sense of home
But at least I've seen the world
Not one good sleep in years
I live for pain 'cause the comfort kills

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Going on the road in our mama's car
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
And we are who we are, now we got this far, oh yeah

Shooting star
It's been too long
It's been too long
Shooting star
Where have you gone?
Where have you gone?
Selling all our souls
Empty pot of gold
No one even knows who we are
Shooting star
It's been too long
It's been too long

It's been too long
It's been too long
I don't know if I can carry on
It's been too long
It's been too long
I don't know if I can carry on

Shooting star
It's been too long
It's been too long
Shooting star
Where have you gone?
Where have you gone?
Selling all our souls
Empty pot of gold
No one even knows who we are
Shooting star
It's been too long
It's been too long
