I think this song is a display of emotion. It's about a man who was cheated on by his girlfriend, obviously, but the lyrics are arranged in an ingenious way. He asks the girl how she can think she's worthy of him, says she's a whore and a liar, but the singer is screaming the words as if he's in pain. And he says he's broken-hearted. He's not just angry, but hurt that she would do such a thing. He's taking his comfort in trying to hurt her back. But he tries to make it look like he regards her as trash. It's really a beautiful song, lyrically.
