This song is about being in a relationship with an immature person, unable to commit, who on top of all that has a strong feelings towards another girl. There is an obvious comparision to the well-known story of Peter Pan.
She is Wendy, now regretting coming to Neverland of his (his life), because all the Lost Boys have moved away (all his/their friends have grown up by this time). But one of them (Peter) is still locked up in Neverland, stucked in his fantasy. So she's fed up with him being immature and irresponsible, she says she couldn't give a fuck because he's a grown up now. She wants to go back home, leave him because she can't live like this anymore. She's swooped her dreams for his, to the point in which she's forgotten what it was that she had wanted. And now she came to realize this is pointless and she's not going to shut up about it 'like all the other dolls' (perhaps his ex-girlfriends, shallow and plastic, without enough nerve to speak up their minds).
She is not naive, she can see how he feels about this other girl and how he will never feel the same way about her. She can recognize the love they never had.
So this feeling of rejection and fatigue makes her numb and perhaps even a bit suicidal (in the book the Sirens were trying to drown Wendy, so maybe she just waits for them to come and take her, because despite all that she still loves Peter, knowing that her love will remain unrequited).
"who has strong feelings toward another girl." Good analysis, but does anybody truly care any longer. Delusions of grandeur can be conquered with modern medicine.
