You have to see her music video to really understand what the song is about.
We all start out in this life painting this picture of what we want in life. The simple things, to love and be loved. We surround ourselves with these ideas of what our idea of life should be. In the video you see her putting up wall paper of a wilderness scene in her tiny apartment, hanging up photos of people. You can see her pet goldfish dead. To me that symbolized that all of these ideas we have in our head are just ideas, they have no life but then one day you tear down the walls that you have built up only to find that everything you ever wanted... it was always right in front of you, you just could not see it because of the walls you had built up. She symbolized this by hanging a photo.. but taking a second look at it saw "through" the wall to what was real and what was right before her that whole time.

Sometimes we can't see the forest from the trees.
You're so right! Sometimes you have to blow the walls out!
