I think Confucious fits in with the characters she sees because she is dead, and they are all dead too. So she can see Confucious, Judy Garland etc. I always thought the 'seven little men' were the seven dwarves (as in Snow White) although why they'd be there (as cartoon characters) I don't know. Anyway, I think this is one of Tori's gems, mostly because the whole thing just sounds like a slightly silly take on being dead until she throws in the killer lines:
'Will you still call for me when she falls asleep
Or do we soon forget the things we cannot see'
Not that I have experience of this (luckily), but people do sometimes quickly fall in love again after a lover has gone.
