I wanted to take your face in my hands and kiss you on the mouth 
At the funeral 
There was a quake in the place where love demands to be noticed and found out 
Making you beautiful 
I turned myself away from you in shame 
Wanting these sensations to go back from where they came 
When the Maid of the Seas whispered to me in the breeze 
She said sex is the opposite of death 
It's alright child it's natural it's wild 
It's just the life force and you can use it 
You won't abuse it Enjoy yourself she said 
Take my husband to bed 
I couldn't keep my mind on the preacher standing by the casket 
Where she lay 
I couldn't weep entwined like some creature with a wish and I ask it 
Please go away 
Shock and grief follow death 
And I feel guilty that I still draw breath 
When the Maid of the Seas whispered to me in the breeze 
She said sex is the opposite of death 
It's the rule it's natural stay cool 
It's just the life force you gotta love it 
You're not above it Enjoy yourself she said 
Take my husband to bed
