I'm not sure about the suicide interpretation (I've always thought of it as a pretty jaunty little number, at least by their standards), but I can tell you that this song dates back to at least mid-1978, well before he had "made the decision of dying." It certainly SOUNDS closer to paranoia or claustrophobia to me than it does depression or suicide.
