An epitaph is a short text honoring a deceased person. Strictly speaking, it refers to text that is inscribed on a tombstone/plaque but it may also be used in a figurative sense. In this song I think it's meant figuratively to represent the weight of grief etched onto the vessels of ones heart after having suffering unimaginable loss.
