"A cephalophore (from the Greek for "head-carrier") is a saint who is generally depicted carrying his or her own head; in art, this was usually meant to signify that the subject in question had been martyred by beheading. Handling the halo in this circumstance offers a unique challenge for the artist. Some put the halo where the head used to be; others have the saint carrying the halo along with the head." from Wikipedia.
At any rate, a really weird song. I'd hazard that it is about a guy who really hates a woman who really, really wronged him. It also works on a political level: she backs some cause but refuses to go to the extent of "dying" for her faith like so many cephalophores before her.
