to me it sounds like the life of a drug addicted prostitute named Lydia
"Comes the stranger that cares not for your heart" a client that comes in the night for Lydia only wanting her body and not her heart.
"Emotionally on guard" trying to keep emotions out of her work.
"Unlike the mirror that shows the strains of vice" A mirror with lines drugs ready to go up the nose.
etc etc blah blah
