streets of philadelphia

• i was bruised and battered and i couldn't tell
  what i felt
  i was unrecognizable to myself
  saw my reflection in a window i didn't know
  my own face
  oh brother are you gonna leave me
  wasting away
  on the streets of philadelphia
  
  i walked the avenue till my legs felt like stone
  i heard the voices of friends vanished and gone
  at night i could hear 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
