[Verse 1]
Where do ya go when the lights go out?
Where do ya go when all the spotlights are out?
Where's the pain now?
Where's your fame now?
What's your name now?

[Refrain]
Nobody, just like anybody
Just like you

[Verse 2]
Memories you're too young to recall
They come turning you on, sliding your back to the wall
Remember the first page
Remember the first stage
Have you memorized your new name?

[Refrain]
Nobody, just like anybody
Just like you
[Verse 3]
What do you do when you're not recognized?
You run center stage, and you have a good cry
What if they
Forget your name?
What've you got to say?

[Refrain]
"I'm nobody, just like anybody
I'm just like you"

[Instrumental]

[Bridge 1]
When the evening's daylight comes a-trickling into town
Then it is my time to mourn
Shadows whirling, swirling, yes, the dark sky is my friend
But come the morning our friendship ends

Evening time means more to me
Than any time was ever meant to be
Eeh, eeh

[Bridge 2]
Lanterns float, the keepers close the gateways to their stores
And the sleepers walk the halls
Blackness, silver dungeon rumors skeleton colored sun
Gets the city on the run
Evening time means more to me
Than any time was ever meant to be
Eeh, eeh

[Bridge 3]
If I could only waltz forever; Down the paths invite
Led by a multicolored night
Shadow of blackness, he's my friend, he takes my worried hand
Guiding through a mystic, darkened land

Ah, evening time means more to me
Than any time was ever meant to be
Eeh, eeh

[Interlude]
Ah, la la la la la la la
Ah, la la la la la la

[Bridge (Refrain)]
Ah, evening time means more to me
Than any time was ever meant to be
Eeh, eeh
Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh
