The first thing I thought of, in regards to the title, was cockroaches. Like how people who don't keep secrets and betray other people to reap the benefits are considered vile and pathetic, like insects.
But now I think of Edgar Allen Poe's The TellTale Heart. I can't remember the story very well, but I'm pretty sure that the narrator hid the body of his victim under the floorboards. Then he went crazy thinking he heard the heartbeat from under the floor and told everybody what he did because he couldn't take it.
So, the song is what the narrator is hearing as he's going crazy.
The victim's heartbeat is sort of threatening, saying,
"I'm here under the floor... I know your secret, you killed me... I'm going to reveal it..."
So, going with that... she could be saying to someone who did something very vile to her,
"I know what you did to me, I'm going to tell everyone."
Just my thoughts, I have no idea if they are anywhere near the right track.
