My personal interpretation is that the singer.. is in love with someone who does love them back, but wants to try again with a person from their past, someone who hurt them. Giving them a second chance.
But the singer know he'll come back to her some day, as he always does "I'm the one that you'll always chose" after he get hurt because she'll always be there to pick up the pieces.
She's is trying to remind him what happened the last time he was with the other woman, but he wont hear it. And so the singer is throwing comparisons between herself and the other. Showing how, although the other is "Bright lights and city scapes", captivating and beautiful, she's also "landslides and masquerades" and how she'll "take all you ever have.", how she'll hurt him all over again and it will just end up a relationship of downfalls and hidden truths.
But he keeps saying, "Maybe it'll last this time."
And she says to that, that it doesn't matter, she'll still love him whether he wants her or not.
