To me, this song is about bing a people pleaser. She wants to do everything right and is in a position where she feels trapped, like she has to do everything right. Eventually, she got tired of being "puppet-like" and lost it. She knows that it's not what she truly believes or thinks but she can't be any different. She feels like a traitor to herself because she is being someone she's not to please others and therefore is betraying herself. In the second verse, "Oh my naked skin"... she begins to stop living the lie and becomes free by allowing herself to be who she really is.
