yeah, i would have to agree that this letter of resignation is most likely a suicide note. i think she is tired of her current situation. she's working 10 hour days, living in a basement suite, and still not being able to pay the bills. it almost sounds like she is at a cross-roads and thinking about either killing herself or moving somewhere. maybe home. it mentions luggage being packed several times. i always get the feeling that she is living away from home and when she is looking at the photo's of her childhood home, she is thinking those where happier times. now she is probably in her late twenties, her life is kinda dissapointing, and she is deciding whether to jump on a bus and move home (leave the empty station) or kill herself (leave the empty life). it also says that the bus won't take her where she really wants to go. i think that means that if she moves somewhere her problems will still follow her. I agree that the broken bottle, rafter beam and needle and spoon are ways that she has thought about killing herself. i am surprised no one mentioned the dried up ball-point, lemon juice and water. i think that she is filling the dried up pen with lemon juice and water to write in invisible ink. it sounds like she is writing this suicide note on the wall in her kitchen. i'm not sure if this formal toned letter is written in invisible ink, or if she has written a formal letter and then a second invisible note that says what she really wanted to say. i like that someone picked up on the formal tone. not sure what it means but it is interesting. i also like how the girls voice in the song reads some of the lines of the note. all you can gather from it, is it's formal tone, she doesn't reveal what is actually being wrtten.
