I was bruised and battered
I couldn't tell what I felt
I was unrecognizable to myself
I saw my reflection in a window
And didn't know my own face
Oh brother you gonna leave me wastin' away
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 could feel the blood in 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
And my clothes don't fit me no more
I walked a thousand miles just to slip this skin

The night has fallen 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
