@saatwik: I think you're on the right track, but perhaps it's about more than just one sexual encounter.

These lyrics make me think about the new (2015) documentary, "Hot Girls Wanted." (Search for it on IMDB) It is about women who have been drawn into the sex trade.

It sounds to me like the person in the song is regretful of her sexual activities, to the point that she is now contemplating suicide. It's a really depressing topic, but altogether very popular amongst teenage and college-age girls. This song probably gets a lot of play time by some people.
