I know you're past that now, but the story can't continue without Tilith.

I think the "suicide" mechanism is her giving in to the fact she can't fight you and gives up.

SPOILER FOR PEOPLE JUST STARTING THIS ZONE AND HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S HAPPENING LATER BELOW!!!!

Either way, she is still alive. By now you also see that she has to continue in the story so after you beat Lucius, she's the new goddess of the gate.
