Here's an article on the Tears of St. Lawrence (warning: the saint's demise is rather grisly):

I'm not much of a lyrics person to begin with, and I find these lyrics even more cryptic than usual. There are references to the night sky and celestial goodbye, so there seems to be an astronomical theme or metaphor, but beyond that I couldn't say. I'd love to hear interpretations from others on the list.
