I think the first line,means something more like "people think my good deeds are just for show and that's always the story" like she's telling you about a headline she saw in a news paper.

I always thought this song was about a person who is always made to feel like they are the problem for being themselves and being different.

I think the first line is more of "everyone thinks that I'm a narcissist person who's disguising as nice person" non that that's the truth
