This is how I interpretate it, this does not mean this is how Demi meant it to be.
I feel like this is about a girl in a controlling relationship, the guy being the controlling one. He's telling her she had to dress a certain way and be a person she's not. She takes it for a while, but at a certain moment she's had enough. She won't take it anymore. That's what I thought the video was about too, the black paint represents her being herself. She's rubbing it all over herself, making her 'dirty'. Her being not the person her boyfriend wants her to be.
To be honoust, this might not be the correct interpretation. But I think this is a better lesson to teach girls, than taking the risk in a relationship is worth it.
