Let me be cliché when I say "WHY DOESN'T THIS HAVE COMMENTS?" But seriously, this is a great song. I love Juliet's voice. In the beginning, I think she's saying she's seen it all and she's been through it all. She's had great times and terrible times. Maybe she's never gotten anything right, perhaps past relationships, and when she's least looking for it she finds the answer she's needed all along: she's fine alone and no matter what she goes through, in the end she will be okay. I think she's been holding onto something -- someone because of the lines "the more you are with me, the more I am alone" this could be about a guy or maybe a half hearted friend. She's saying that keeping this person with her is making her more alone, and all she needs is herself.
This could be completely wrong what someone else thinks, but this is how I see the song.
