[Introduction to Sidewalk]

Running, running, always running
But never getting anywhere
Panting, reaching, struggling, gasping
Falling, always falling
You'll never reach the other side
You'll never make it out alive
So why try?

Everyone has a past. Everyone has a history, a tale of horror, a dark secret they don't want anyone to know about. When your own life is awash with misery and sorrow, you stop wondering why the others look beaten too. You don't need their suffering added to your own. You learn to deal with the grief by yourself. You close your heart, so you cannot feel, but the world doesn't stop crying.

The nightmare is never ending
It just goes on and on
It waits for you, once have have awoken
Waiting for you to come back to it
When all that awaits you is horror, fear, death
Why bother to sleep?

Yes, we all have our own story, our own unique tale of woe. But they're all the same really, in the end. A story about sadness, pain, heartbreak. No one can change the past. But you can change the future. The past says who you were. Only you can say who you will be. By the way you act today. By the way you act tomorrow, and the day after that. By the way you cope with the hand you were dealt. Those who have courage overcome the darkness and step forth into the light. And it is here, in this place of new beginnings, where such things happen. This is the place where the scars of the past are healed, the place where the frightened and abused learn to trust again. This is the place where the wild at heart at last learn to dream once more.

Here is your out
Ahead of you, the end to the nightmares
It's not the light at the end of the tunnel
It's another, stronger light, there in the distance
There, on the horizon, coming with the rising sun
I know it looks far, but I'll be there with you
Every step of the way
Together, we can escape the torment
Are you coming?
