I didn't think so at first, but now thinking over certain things like what em22feb said, it does seem sort of suicidal--certain details just fit.
Also, I read that lead singer Erik Mattiasson tried to commit suicide. I'm not sure when he made the attempt, as in before or after he wrote this song, but either way it makes sense for him to write a song about suicide. If it's after, then it could be about what he was thinking when he tried, and if it was before then it could be about what he was thinking it would be like, or like a justification.
Whatever the song means, it's really beautiful with interesting creepy undertones. I love Melpo Mene.
