I think this is Sharon Shy's Sense of humor seeping through. if you take this song at face value, you're entirely missed the point and should stop listening to The Ropes all together. She loves to play up the dark, depressed outsider image for theatrics, and the very fact that she goes so far past the point of sounding suicidal to warp back and parody itself speaks volumes. The point made in several comments above me about the irony of suffering longer simply because she doesn't want to get dirty in killing herself in quite valid. She uses that for humor, not even being bothered to end her "torment" because it would incur more discomfort anyway.
