Can't say much about the meaning of the song; I can, however, point out the the last three lines of the first verse seem to be based on a poem by Edgar Allan Poe, named "The Conqueror Worm" (my favorite poem of his, actually [: ) particularly the last verse of which. (Look it up)
Actually, now that I think about it, one could draw comparison between at least some lines in the song and Poe's story "Ligeia" (Ligeia? Lydia?), in which the aforementioned poem appeared, as recited by it's title character...
Or might be I'm way wrong. Still...
