I think these are the most beautiful dark lyrics ever written in my opinion. I think Devil's whore is just a nickname for a vampire, and instead of having sex with people they kill for him (the Devil). So, along with what others said he meets a beautiful woman, she turns out to be a vampire... It's not 100% clear if they fuck in the forest, but they obviously do something, and it IS clear that she bites him and drinks his blood, which is of course very sexy to this guy and could be LIKE sex to them. After their first meeting he must find her again, and when he does she takes more of his "red roses" aka blood. And I'm not quite sure if he's turned into a vampire or just dies. Because "grieving the loss of life" could be his mortal life and he's now a vampire. But it could be that she just killed him.
