The Night Is a Time to Explore Who You Are - Pet Shop Boys

The night is a time

To explore who you are

Are you what you imagined?

How did you get this far?

Life isn’t static

It evolves from the start

As a kind of work in progress

Try to think of it as art

Then everything is clear

Why it is we’re here

Individually the same

Trying to stake a claim to fame

The night is a time

To explore who you are

Are you want you want to be?

Could you really be a star?

Sometimes you want something

You never had

In the middle of the night

You can let yourself go slightly mad

Here in the night

Is a strange democracy

It’s not who you are that matters

But what you could be

Behave as an artist

And the night will work for you

If you learn from your failures

To create something new

Then everything is clear

Why it is we’re here

Individually the same

Trying to stake a claim to fame

The night is a time

To explore who you are

Are you want you want to be?

Could you really be a star?

Sometimes you want someone

You never knew

In the middle of the night

You can make all your dreams come true
