I don't know if i 100% agree with your police work there queenofquiet.
For me the first verse is focused on her love - that slain is a good word here, the person has killed her with love and that she hopes to be scooped up and thrown inside of the love. The black tattoos are a sign that she does not want the love to fail.
I'm not sure about the second verse, it sounds a little like she is returning to his home as a homing pigeon but i'm not certain.
