Yes, supposedly this song is about their friend that died falling 3 stories out of a window with another friend, but think about it...
"...through the hours of dying" There is simply no such thing as instant death. Whenever you're in a bad mood or in pain or you're just not having a good time, time seems to pass much more slowly. In the "instant" it takes for someone to die, like in a car crash, it could feel like hours during their suffering. Hence "Sing us a song to hum through the hours of dying," keep me busy and help me get m mind off this pain.
"Who would have though it'd come as such a show?" She fell three stories out a window. Who would've guessed you'd die that way?
"A pink and silver day... who was to know?" It was just another ordinary day, a great day until that point - who could've guessed this fantastic day would be the day you die?
Hm, that's all I've got. I'm really unsure about the rest of the lyrics...
