Somewhere refers to a specific location, although we don't know what that specific location is at the moment the word is used. Mary went somewhere for a job interview; she didn't give me the specifics.

Everywhere refers to all possible locations at once. This use would be context-specific. If I visited a large dairy farm, I might tell you that "I saw cows everywhere!" Clearly, I mean I saw lots of cows on the farm, and not that cows occupy every point of space throughout the universe.

If I say "In one form or another, there is matter or energy everywhere" means that I am speculating the presence of matter or energy in every point of space in the universe. [This isn't about the science; the statement refers literally to 'everywhere' in the universe whether this is scientifically accurate or not.]
