"Streets Of Philadelphia" lyrics
"Streets Of Philadelphia"
(originally by Bruce Springsteen)
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 wastin' away
On the streets of Philadelphia?
I walked the avenue, 'til 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
No angel gonna greet me
It's just you and I, my friend
And my clothes don't fit me no more
A thousand miles just to 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?
On the streets of Philadelphia
On the streets of Philadelphia
On the streets of Philadelphia
On the streets of Philadelphia
Streets of Philadelphia
On the streets of Philadelphia
On the streets of Philadelphia

I thought it'd crash, blowing eighty miles an hour
But happiness is a little more like knocking
On your door, you just let it in

And his eyes won't see
And you know he won't come around here
He needs it to be
It's like something evil is taking a hold, nothing deep here
It's like we're...
Ben Howard - "I Forget Where We Were" Oh, hey
I wasn't listening
I was watching Syria blinded by the sunshine strip
And you, you were in the kitchen
Oh, your mariner's mouth
The wounded with the wounder's whip
And that's how summer...
Haux - "Sister" Open the window
Lock all the doors
Spill all your secrets
Onto the floor
Remember the bodies
Remember the war
Remember the wanting
And all we endured
Swallow the silence
Choke on the words
Blow out...
