Back To Allentown Lyrics

I wish I could make it back to Allentown
Maybe I can get someone to show me around

You were right, I was wrong
I've been this way for far too long
You hate me, I love you
Show me a place where I belong

I wish I could make it back to Allentown
Maybe I can get someone to push me around

You were right, I was wrong
I've been this way for far too long
You hate me, I love you
Show me a place where I belong

You don't matter as much as you think
Or much at all
And when you become extinct
I'll watch you fall

I wish I could make it back to Allentown
Maybe I can get someone to push you around

You were right, I was wrong
I've been this way for far too long
You hate me, I love you
Show me a place where I belong

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.
