I believe this song is about loving someone and giving them a permanent place in your heart even though you know there will be pain because they are or will leave. Perhaps the lover is dying, or they know the relationship is temporary.

-- Love and letting someone into your heart --

get a little closer, let fold cut open my sternum, and pull my little ribs around you the lungs of me be crowns over you

-- Pain, because their presence is temporary and knowing they will leave --

I'll put the South pockets gladly Over the rocky cliffs that you leap To peer over and not forget what feet are Splitting threads of thunder over me

-- But still giving the lover a permanent place in their heart --

You make a fine shrine in me You build a fine shrine in me

It is a beautiful, moving song describing quite vicerally how much of a sacrifice it is to love someone.

My Interpretation

Let me guess. The remedy is to love someone in dreams so they can never leave? So they depart in real life because they are unfullfilled, but at least they're still in dreams? And that's comforting to some people? Amazing.
