I definitely always took this as a girl who had been raped and abused, and that's why she feels she's been "paying" for her looks. It's obvious how angry she is about it.
There's a song by Emilie Autumn that's very similar in premise, called "Thank God I'm Pretty", and I advise everyone reading to check it out. The lyrics are basically sarcastically saying "Thank you for giving me these looks", and it has lines like "Every ill merely brought on by myself", "I'm truly privileged to look this good without clothes on" and "It's lucky I hate to be taken seriously", and even "Everybody thinks I'm a fucking suicide girl".
