This song, as I see it, is criticizing the model of love that our society presents to us at a very young age. The 'fairy tale' kind of love, lasting forever and living happilly ever after. It shows how this idea chains people to obssession and needyness, taking away from them the lightness of living.
Of course the lyrics, read alone, point to the other direction, but the melody is what brings the understanding of being against what the lyrics say. That can be noticed in the screams in "Foreveeer (AHHH)!", it seems the person is suffering or is crazy.
The song passes the idea that this model is not love, but actually obssession, to the point that its destructive and madening. I noticed this aspect in the verses "Never let you leave my side"; "I'll love you 'till we decompose"; "Maybe we can die together"; "Even in the afterlife, girl you'll still be mine". It's an attachment that imprisons both persons involved in it.
