I think this song is about how all her life she's felt like she's been misunderstood by men. She's diluted her perception, bashed her head against a wall to try to "get them" or ingratiate herself to a man's worldview, or attempted to gain favor with them in an attempt for peaceful coexistence but it's all been for naught. When she refers to it as "the right angle" I completely empathize. Everything we've been taught is skewed since it's been taught to us through a certain type of person's perspective for the most part...cough...straight white men...cough cough.
