I think the song is about realizing that death might not be tragedy..they seem to refer to it as a "masterpiece" meaning that rather than take death as something bad, they are looking at it as something more like a miracle..the opposite of life..and they've come to this amazing realization that death is just a fact of life, and if you can grasp that concept than you can understand that it isn't really a sad thing..but since most people don't see that they dont understand..thats why in the song people are staring at him with "bitter dislike"
i don't know if that makes sense but that's what i got from the song
