This song is so sad. It is a song about committing suicide, and I do believe that it is at the mourn for her mother that drives her to do this. Because she mentions her mother:
"Crouched down on a rooftop
In my mother's high-heeled shoes
I'm wondering if I will drop
Fly away with you
I can smell the rain coming
But I won't leave until it falls
I'm gonna soak in its downpour
Til I hear my mother's calls"
Which could mean that she is going to jump off the ledge of the building when the rain starts, and then when she is dead she will hear her mother calling out.
"The roof slips beneath my feet
As the branches back away from me
The softest grass turns to concrete
But I will fly
I will fly
You will see"
Could mean that as the rain pours she does slip off the building, and as she is falling and after death she will "fly" to heaven to be reunited with her mother.
