*Through a third party's perspective*


He has a lot of secrets he cannot share

It's a lot of weight that he has to bare

A lot of lives on the line

I'm just glad that none of those is mine

His dream of the city and bay has to stay hidden

For all his dreams are forbidden

Sophie's foot has to stay out of sight

So does Joseph's brother's height

Talking to the "others" is on the list

A list that has to be covered by a thick mist

All those secrets he promised to keep sound

And to all those promises he is bound
