Screaming "Theater" In A Crowded Fire Lyrics

My interpretation of these lyrics is that there are two lovers, and their relationship is messy and painful; sadistic and masochistic. But aside from its imperfection there's a beauty in this morbid, bloody romance and this love has its share of both horror and sweetness. She loves her darling and he'll do anything to please her. She loves him with all her twisted heart and he obeys her, fulfilling her every wish upon her request. He's like her own personal voodoo doll, in a sense. ("I've torn your heart out three times now", etc). It's a sick but pretty romance. They love each other murderously.
