I think that this song is about a young girl and relationship that she is not supposed to have... say with a teacher or someone who is over 18.
The power of orange knickers under her petticoat refers to how empowered she feels to have this secret and the sexual influence on him. She has this bright and shocking thing hidden away under very proper petticoats, and only she and people who she allows know about it. Having a secret provides power over people who do not know it.
I think that the power of listening to what you don't want me to know could refer to a number of situations, but just think about the powerful feeling it gives you to know someone else's secrets. In this case I think that it is probably what most people have suggested, she finds out that she does not mean anything to him - it could be that he has another woman, has no intention of leaving his wife, or simply denies that he has a relationship with her.
The matter of complication is of course her age in my interpretation - especially because of the transitioning line
Being alone in this kiss I think has to do with both what other people have suggested about her being emotionally "in" the kiss, but also that a kiss is never just one person. There is someone else involved
Now as to who the terrorist is, it is the singer. She has the power over him sexually, and she has his secrets. She can "rip his life to pieces" and she has the pill in her hand. In a way the situation is a suicide mission because she will be ruined by it, but he will suffer more damage.
Well anyway, even without this specific case of a girl and a much older man is not exactly on the money I am quite sure that she is the terrorist, not the other woman if there is one. Mostly why I feel like that is because over and over again it explains how the singer has the power.
