Answer: At first I had the "Jesus theory" about the song too. I thought he meant that Jesus left the glory of heaven "The stars that pierce the sky, he left them all behind" so he could come to lay down his life. And he's going to come back but they're asking why he left us all behind. But then I realized they probably werent talking about that. I think they meant that this man wants to die so his beauty can be preserved. But then again.....I don't know, I have my own personal meaning of the song.
