i didn't want it when i had it,
so i took it and i threw it away
and i regret it every single day;
oh no, i've always wanted what i couldn't have
until you gave it all to me,
but now it's back to how it used to be;

you're makin it so hard to leave this place,
even though carolina is so far away;

don't believe em,
don't believe what they say;
you and i both know that's insane;
do you want me still?
cause i'm feeling like i'm starved
for something real;
so, i won't believe em,
won't believe what they say;
you and i both know it's insane
that i want you still,
but i'm feeling like i'm starved
for something real;

i didn't want it when i had it,
so i took it and i threw it away;
now believe me when i say...

yea, i'm starved for something real;
how does it feel to make me feel?
you ruin my already impaired
ability to prepare;
please don't consider this a flaw,
cause baby, i'm starved;

don't leave this place,
even if carolina is so far away;
