Shes got all the materialistic things and all the accomplishments she sat out to gain and achieve, but it seems pointless without him, she’s crying out to him ‘hello hello can you hear me?’ The reference to the china doll is her saying that shes willing to let him break her, because she knows inevitably he will, she just wants him, she doesn’t care. She says ‘my life is sweet like vanilla is’ it seems like a metaphor for boredom, lack of excitement, a base with no real flavour. I think the flash bulbs reference is about her fame, it’s a beautiful world of glamour, and others think ‘she has it all’ and this song is emphasising the lack of meaning everything has without the man she loves.
