I like pwnttothemax's interpretation but I feel like the song is drawing more on the theory that Pluto was once a moon of Neptune but escaped it's pull a long while ago and now it is on it's own.
Building on what pwnttothemax suggested I think the "great white rose" reference is definitely spot on. However, the line "i've gathered your body" and the rest of the stanza i think is talking about how Neptune's gravity formed Pluto initially then the "have it your own way" line and the last stanza refer to how Pluto 'escaped' Neptune's pull. The "two worlds" stanza could also reference Pluto and Triton since the two are so similar but since Neptune has 14 moons that might be a stretch.
I still agree that it's a song of mourning though.
