In the beginning, she sings about being naive and buying into all the lies around her. But, then she realizes that there's so much that she can do and she can have. And this person (whether it was a boyfriend, friend, mentor) took advantage of her and thusly she takes revenge on them, via burning doen his/her house. Great song. Self-explanatory really. lol.
