I'm wondering if "And deny me my body and all earthly delights" means she wouldn't want to live in an afterlife where we wouldn't have our bodies and we'd be just like floating spirits or something (which is what some people believe will happen in heaven. I personally DO believe in an afterlife, but one where we have the same bodies as we do now, just better, "made perfect"). Anyway, I don't know if that interpretation is accurate, considering the previous line "You wake with the stitches over both your eyes" signifies an afterlife WITH bodies, but imperfect ones (hence the stitches). But then again the stitches could be purely metaphoric.
Maybe this line: "I guess you are afraid of what everyone is made of" could be her speaking to God, saying that not everyone thinks this afterlife is so great, some people preferred life on earth and that alone; she'd rather die than live in this so-called heaven.
Okay, I think I'm wrong now. I don't think I can be right if "give me little death" means give me sex/an orgasm. Unless she wanted it to have both meanings?
