I think this song is about a girl who has been hurt in her previous relationship, and now the guy wants to come back into her life.

"You tell me you're missing me and that you can't wait to see me again You tell me you don't know why you and I can't go on being friends You say you still think of the two of us and that you still wanna stay in touch But I still remember

All the hell you put me through, all the tears cried over you You can't keep coming back It's not fair"

The boy has realised what he is missing without her, and now wants her back in his life. But she can't just forget everything that happened and how much he hurt her. She can't forget and let him back in.

The chorus pretty much explains that after everything he has done, he doesn't have the right to come back into her life like nothing happened. She can't just forgive and forget, and he can't expect her to.

"I don't wanna hear from you, or hear what's been going on in your life I don't want you coming round, coming here messing with my mind I finally got my heart to start to heal, why can't you just stay away from me Cause I still remember

All the hell you put me through Now what am I supposed to do Just say that it's ok It's not fair"

She is begging the guy to stay away from her and she is fine without him and moved on completely, but she knows that if she sees him, all her feelings for him will begin to resurface again. The line "Now what am I supposed to do, just say that it's ok?" means that he can't expect her to just except his apology and forgive him so easily.
