She followed her heart in a relationship and had tons of expectations but totally missed reality and was let down. She was with a jerk that made her hurt, blamed her for everything, and what not. For so me reason she was attracted to this pain that she was inflicting on herself by being in this relationship but couldn't let go for some reason,. She lost herself, got caught up in the relationship. I'm glad I'm not alone. . Sounds like what I just went thu. I love this song, I can totally relate. You let your heart make decisions and sometimes its wrong. You gotta follow your brain.
