Falling Like the Fahrenheit Lyrics
Let me play a melody for you
While searching for the light
And a way to live forever
Your flaws make sure you never contemplate
And see the consequence
Of trying to survive
Like the shadows in my head
You will play that ghost again
Do you think salvation waits for you?
As I lay you down to sleep
All your tears are mine to keep
Falling like the fahrenheit
Someone will always lose
You will never see another sunrise
My cyanide in paradise
That someone's always you
I will never see another sundown in your eyes
Let me share a memory with you
Imprisoned in the sound
Let us dream away together
Every single note is bound to send
A flower from this world
To wither away with a smile
Like the shadows in my head
You will play that ghost again
Do you think salvation waits for you?
As I lay you down to sleep
All your tears are mine to keep
Falling like the fahrenheit
Someone will always lose
You will never see another sunrise
My cyanide in paradise
That someone's always you
I will never see another sundown in your eyes
Give me a sign
To take what is righteously mine
Give me the secrets that you keep
I'll save them for no one else to see
Falling like the fahrenheit
Someone will always lose
You will never see another sunrise
My cyanide in paradise
That someone's always you
I will never see another sundown in your eyes
While searching for the light
And a way to live forever
Your flaws make sure you never contemplate
And see the consequence
Of trying to survive
You will play that ghost again
Do you think salvation waits for you?
As I lay you down to sleep
All your tears are mine to keep
Someone will always lose
You will never see another sunrise
My cyanide in paradise
That someone's always you
I will never see another sundown in your eyes
Imprisoned in the sound
Let us dream away together
Every single note is bound to send
A flower from this world
To wither away with a smile
You will play that ghost again
Do you think salvation waits for you?
As I lay you down to sleep
All your tears are mine to keep
Someone will always lose
You will never see another sunrise
My cyanide in paradise
That someone's always you
I will never see another sundown in your eyes
To take what is righteously mine
I'll save them for no one else to see
Someone will always lose
You will never see another sunrise
My cyanide in paradise
That someone's always you
I will never see another sundown in your eyes

I believe that this is from Robert's point of view. He kills Aurora and sees his lifework completed. That's why he gets slightly melancholy within the verses. After "To take what is righteously mine" you can hear "Silverthorn"'s chorus melody played on the cello. I interpret it as Robert playing the melody ("Let me play a melody for you") with his Silverthorn, which kills Aurora.
Can definitely picture Robert stabbing his "sister-in-law" with a cello bow, then playing her a dirge with it. Aurora does seem like the right candidate for this song, but the fact that her singer is the same as Jolee doesn't make it any easier... it could be their mother, just as much.
