Wow I'm surprised this song doesn't have more comments. Anyways, I think everyone is right so far, but after seeing the music video I think the meaning goes a lot deeper.
I think it's about a classic "good girl falls for the bad boy" scenario. She knows he is "trouble" - messed up, dangerous, and just doesn't care - and she ignores the flags because he's exciting and new. She changes herself entirely to keep up with him, but in the end all she ends up doing is losing herself and him. I think this song is more about the tragedy of losing yourself for someone else, and realizing that she changed herself completely for someone who didn't even end up caring or loving her.
