This song is incredibly painful, but very relatable today to many. I think this song is about a girl who has endured a lot of heartbreak and goes through it once again. The beginning alludes to the fact that she has been through this before. She, "never wanted to feel" "never wanted to show she was weak". Because she has been in that place before, and would rather be numb. And still she can't stay away from this person. So she is "falling all over herself" trying to prove her worth once again to this individual. She's even trying to be the girl this person wants, "Trying to be someone else". But, it's still not enough, for this person doesn't dare get close to her. They keep their distance as they refuse to walk her home. Home being a place where they could really get to know about who she is and what she stands for. She always wanted their heart. But knows, "she never was". In other words, she's not good enough again, and this person is just stringing her along or using her. She knows this, but almost refuses to acknowlege it. So, in a last attempt before she leaves she confesses her feelings even though she already knows they don't feel the same. "Never told you before
Never loved you more". So despite the fact that she knows they could care less about her she loves them and has done everything she could to love them well. At the end, I interpret that she sets off alone as expected. She's "dying to be someone else". As she sees how others don't have to "fight the world alone" as she does. She sees how they are happy and how they know love, something she has only given but never received.
