this song is about a person that is in a relationship with someone they love, a relationship that seems to be ending.
it's that kind of relationship in which she was always in the 'lower' position of being the most interested one, the one that loves more. but she seemed to accept that situation and she's kept it cool throughout it.
now that it's ending she sees it as a fulfilled prophecy.
* I'm no fool, I know you're cool / I never really wanted your heart *
she probably thought that one day the dynamics of the relationship would change, but that didn't happen. she's still the one that loves more.
* was it all in vain? *
it's not that she wasn't loved at all, it's just that she always felt like she was the one to which the relationship mattered more.
i think it captures this very realistic feeling of being so insecure and in such a shitty position but at the same time trying to look like you've got it together, like you knew what you were getting into from the start.
you're sad. you're not cool enough for them, you have never been. you wanted just a minor part. but at least you know it, you've always known, so you got it all under control.
