I think this song is about a guy she used to date/wanted to date, but maybe he broke it off or they couldn't be together for some reason. She's at this club, filled with people, because she knows he's going to be there and she wants him to see her. She's putting on an act like she doesn't care about him anymore. Its almost like she's trying to convince herself as much as him: "Never mind a heart that's broken right." He heart is broken over the whole situation and she really wants to be with him but is putting on this act like it doesn't matter. She sees him with this other girl and that he's buying her drinks and they're together. And she keeps wondering what she's doing there because seeing him is like torture. As she's watching this she's thinking about leaving, but as she egdes towards the door she changes her mind, she's "not done pretending yet" that maybe their relationship can work out. I'm not sure about the "empty space and rocking numbers part" but it might be either the emptiness inside of her, or the empty spaces of the club that are slowly being filled by people, or maybe that she's looking for an empty space to breath for a moment, maybe as she reaches for the banister to steady herself. The "rocking numbers" is probably the loud music, though I'm not sure. Then at the end of the song, maybe after she's stood back and had time to think she realizes that it stupid for her to be there because she can't give him anymore of herself and if he won't take it than he's not worth it.

I could be majorly wrong, but thats the basic gist of what I get from the song.
