I think it's actually quite a literal song. She's seen her boyfriend in a fight, and they are having problems in their relationship. She is slowly losing her faith in men, believing that they are 'all the same'. I also think the line about a house made of paper etc is a reference to how they were perhaps both writers (she's been writing songs for a long time). It just seems to make sense with 'your words all over me'. X
