Lonely Soul (Nowhere to Run) Lyrics

I wish I were a Beatle
I wish I were a Rolling Stone
I wish I'd always turn up
I wish I had nowhere to run

I wish I had it coming
I wish I had electric cars
I wish I were somebody
I wish I were a great big star

Would somebody help me out of my head
I'm having trouble trying to figure myself
I'm a lonely soul
Just like you
Just like you

I heard that European girls
They party like rock stars
Oh yeah they eat cocaine
And they put in their vein
And they do it everyday
And in every single way
Those European girls
They party like rock stars

Would somebody help me out of my head
I'm having trouble trying to do it myself
I'm a lonely soul
Just like you
Just like you

I'm a desert
I'm an ocean
I'm a sun, I'm moving the sky
I'm always out of view, I'm you
I'm everyone you know
I'm just a lonely soul

Would somebody help me out of my head
I'm twenty-seven and I'm already dead
I'm a lonely soul
Just like you, just like you
Just like you, just like you
Just like you, just like you
Just like you, just like you

I wish I were a Beatle
I wish I were a Rolling Stone
I wish I'd always turn up
I wish I had nowhere to run

I wish I had it coming
I wish I had electric cars
I wish I were somebody
I wish I were a great big star

Would somebody help me out of my head
I'm having trouble trying to figure myself
I'm a lonely soul
Just like you
Just like you

I heard that European girls
They party like rock stars
Oh yeah they eat cocaine
And they put in their vein
And they do it everyday
And in every single way
Those European girls
They party like rock stars

Would somebody help me out of my head
I'm having trouble trying to do it myself
I'm a lonely soul
Just like you
Just like you

I'm a desert
I'm an ocean
I'm a sun, I'm moving the sky
I'm always out of view, I'm you
I'm everyone you know 
I'm just a lonely soul

Would somebody help me out of my head
I'm twenty-seven and I'm already dead
I'm a lonely soul
Just like you, just like you
Just like you, just like you
Just like you, just like you
Just like you, just like you

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.
