This song should be taken metaphorically. This murder scene should be related to a break up which makes sense because a bad break up can make you feel dead inside. In his opening lines he states that he has been betrayed basically. This happens a lot in a break up he says that the people he loved maybe a specific female in general broke up with him or cheated on him to be more specific. As for the chorus he states he had been left behind and left for the rain to wash away. Maybe this could say that he was left to be forgotten about in that relationship. But when she does come back but he had been hurt so bad that he doesn't have enough in him to forgive because he is empty with emotion. Which would make sense why they would choose a chalk outline because you have physical outline but you're empty inside. The second verse is about this female being so savage to break his heart that when she wants him again he will not be there because metaphorically his body is gone and he will be just a chalk outline.
