Someone Show Me Home Lyrics

Down by the side of the hotel all-nighter
Is your old grey door
Men gather round with the fear that a lawman
Will come to clean up the floor
Ones a week it all begins
10:15 for sure

Smoke fills the room, they arrive in a hurry
Bring the tears to my eyes

Someone show me outta here
Someone show me home
Someone show me, I can't stay
To see you act that way

Out on the street people moving in closer
I take the lift nineteen floors
Right to the top to the edge set for falling
I look down to see you there

Someone show me outta here
Someone show me home
Someone show me, I can't stay
To see you act that way

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Fuuuuck...!! I wrote this 4 years ago. The song is about me...!!! (crying) It is about my wife. Two weeks after i married my wife i found out that she is working as an escort. Strange thing is i never forgot this song and now my heart is in a crazy sad moo. I can watch my wife on a escort site as i am at my work at sea. Can you imagine the pain...??! Fuck! This is soooo hard to endure. I discovered that she was lying constantly to me for more than one year. I feel like an idiot. But i can say that my heart was always true, and i really loved this woman. She was my happiness that turned my eyes totally blue. Now i want a revenge.....
