Lol Ok I admit that my "theory" has some holes in it.
I think that the possibility that He broke up with her is a little shaky. I believe the song shows she did love him and it seems that he was showing affection for her as well.
Ahhh OK. They were to be married. He was filling her full of love talk that day underneath the bell. He was not lying to her but was just being creative with his compliments. In his eyes hummingbirds really did follow her everywhere she went. Ugly no. She must have been ravishing. They did climb to the top of the Bell Tower. There he was at the window. Looking out... maybe leaning out.. and Out He Went. She didn't push him but was traumatized by what happened. Her Love.. Out The Window.
So he is gone and there is a new "love" at the window. She had tried to love this guy but could not. She wants love... the love that she had lost. She was to have been a bride... but now she is but a "Corpse Bride".
"Coming at you like some tattered corpse bride
Coming at you, so stand aside"
So maybe now all men need to beware. She tries to love them but in reality she is meaning to do them harm. To pay "mankind" back for the loss of her true love.
"Coming at you from behind
Coming at you, all scissors and knives
All shadows and lies"
Walking straight down the line could very well be referring to walking down the marriage isle. They want to marry her but she has something else planned.
