| I think there's a very good case to be made for the tombstone interpretation. "If it could start being alive you'd stop living alone" is probably the best support. But also, throughout the song the narrator is contrasting himself with "the stone" and one of his qualities is "hot breath," something no living person lacks (though I guess the death could be metaphorical). Also, white veins would belong to a deat person and stones come in all colors but tombstones are almost always a "hard grey" color and are large and heavy. Finally, the idea of "a knave" who gave her a rose "years ago" suggests someone who is not around any more. | |
