basically, something happened to her. she was sad, she was upset, she was lost.
but then the person helped her through it.
(i've been there too, i've wasted myself, and you were there for me).
and now the other person is the one who needs help, and she's saying, you were there for me and i'll be there for you.
and the part where she says 'where does it hurt?' reminds me of a mom who is asking her kid where it hurts so that she'll be able to help the kid.
and i take it as, like, she loves that person so much that she considers him a part of her family, because she cares for him.
so she's asking 'where does it hurt' as an attempt to ease his pain.
brilliant song.
whoever writes the songs for instant star are pretty insane writers, haha.
one of my favorites from instant star.
