This song is so haunting... it took me a day and someone else's word to figure out why it weirded/freaked me out so much.
A requiem is a song meant to honour a dead person (I looked it up on dictionary.com), so this song has to be about someone that is dead and he's grieving.
Or, if you want to look symbolically, the meaning of the word requiem could be used in a way that's singing about how she's dead to him. Like, she screwed up and left or something and he's singing about how she made a mistake and how he misses how she was and now she's dead to him? Doesn't seem as likely though...
