( ) nx I was bruised and battered I couldn't tell what I felt I was unrecognizable to myself saw my reflection in a window and didn't know my own face oh brother are you gonna leave me wasting like this on the streets of Philadelphia I walked the avenue 'til my legs felt like stone I heard voices of friends vanished and gone At night I hear the blood in my veins just as black and whispery as the rain on the streets of Philadelphia Ain't no angel gonna greet me It's just you and I my friend and my clothes don't fit me no more I walked a thousand miles just to slip this skin The night is falling, I'm lying awake I can feel my self fading away so receive me brother with your fateless kiss or will we leave each other alone like this on the streets of Philadelphia...
