    Across The Sea
    You are 18 year old girl who live in small city of Japan
    and you heard me on the radio about one year ago
    and you're wanting to know all about me and my hobbies
    my favorite food and my birthday

    Why are you so far away from me?
    I need help and you're way across the sea
    I could never touch you - I think it would be wrong
    But I've got your letter and you've got my song

    They don't make stationery like this where I'm from
    so fragile, so refined
    So I sniff and I lick your envelope
    and fall to little pieces every time
    I wonder what clothes you wear to school
    I wonder how you decorate your room
    I wonder how you touch yourself and
    curse myself for being across the sea

    At 10 I shaved my head and tried to be a monk
    I thought the older women would like me if I did
    You see, ma, I'm a good little boy
    It's all your fault, momma, it's all your fault
    goddamn, this business is really lame
    I gotta live on an island to find the juice
    So you send me your love from all around the world
    As if I could live on words and dreams and a million screams
    oh, how I need a hand in mine to feel.
