I was bruised and battered, and I couldn't tell what I felt
I was unrecognizable to myself
I see my reflection in a window, and I didn't know my own face
Brother, please don't leave me wastin' away
On the Streets of Philadelphia
I walked this avenue, 'til my legs feel like stone
I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone
At night I could hear the blood burning through my veins
Just as black and whispering as the rain
On the Streets of Philadelphia
Ain't no angel gonna greet me
It's just you and I my friend
These clothes, they don't fit me anymore
I walked a thousand miles
And I wanna slip this skin
The night has fallen, and I'm lyin' awake
I can feel myself fading away
So receive me brother with your faithless kiss
Or will we leave each other alone like this
On the Streets of Philadelphia
