I think the true meaning of this song is needing some space, time out, because when you're not a whole you can't be someone else's compliment :D

In order to love someone, you must love you first.

Basically that's it, and the song reflects that the wise thing to do is perform this search on your own and not involving someone (that was already there) so saying goodbye is hard but fair for that other person.

Until you get together.

I'm just like that right now.

Good song

The song has a hidden meaning going back to her obsession with mexican bangers in EAST LA ( see Glamorous) The guy in the video is tattooed with the style of mexican gang related tatts seen in Los Angelos ( the caligraphy chain--the clowns --virgen mary)he even has EAST SIDE tattooed on his arm. She is seeing that love from anyother way --since she became famous --she writes it in her journal --she is looking from the outside looking in ( henc her looking outside while he commits a crime drug dealing...of which he was selling to another mexican banger...
