I see a couple possible meanings to this song.
One, I think it could be about being screwed up yourself, and there's someone rotting away in front of you and part of you just wishes you could just fade away too. You know, you envy them for being able to just let themselves rot away but there's something holding you back, you hide all the destructive things you do but just are envious of how they're fading..
Or it could be about a relationship of some sort. It could be abusive, "one bullet in this gun not sure if it's for you or me", angry at him for hurting her so badly yet so angry and upset with herself she doesn't know who she hates more. "All, all that i'll ever suffer/All, all that i'll ever be/All, all that i'll ever ruin you can always cover me with makeup" All that she suffers could be suffering from him, and all that she ruins could be she ruined something with him and she just hides it all away, or it could be she hurts herself somehow and she can hide it from everyone.
"When it burned it smelled like you but it scorched and looked a lot like me" Hurting herself over him, yes you could link the whole thing to self-injury, you're motivating me and yet i'm hurting myself not you..It's a really really great song. I can interpret it to mean self-injury and self hate and being afraid to trust and it can have a really deep meaning for me, yet someone else can interpret it into a relationship and the hurt from themselves and the other person and it can have a deep meaning for them too and a lot of JoJ's songs can be like that. So good =)
