You have to look at this from the point of view of the person writing it read the interviews with Candace She's had one fuck of a rough life. This song is about, trying to have a life as survivor of sexual of physical abuse as a child.
It's about overcoming your past based on the idea that true love exists that not the whole world is as cruel as your past, holding out hope from good in the world and having that hope be the only thing that you cling to some days that it keeps you a live. Then you meet someone and you pin that hope on them, and when it falls apart you default back to the emotion that keeps you alive when all else fails and you bleed out the hate.
