I feel this song is written about troubles she had with an ex-boyfriend of hers. She's spoken about having dated a heavy metal drummer whilst living in New York (thus her being "the rockstar's girlfriend"). She's writing of the fights and ultimate ending of this relationship, and then of the struggles she went through when she first moved to LA (possibly not long after the break up?) and was trying to get signed and make a living through her music.
That's just my interpretation though :)
I love the "well it's alright baby, I'm nobody's mother.." line. It's her way of saying yeah I get it, I'm not THAT important to you, but just let me enjoy this last moment we have together.
