Asleep in Metropolis

The voice on the radio
 Tries to convince me
 So smooth
 Yeah, he's my friend
 His words are universal truth
 A tango slides through the night
 A glimpse of slender, twining limbs
 Cannot mistake desire
 It tries to draw me in
 An envelope of diamonds, no name
 Scattered, sparkling in my hand
 The brilliance splits the night again
 Many signs to understand
 I'm asleep in Metropolis
 You will wake me with a Judas kiss
 I saw in black and white
 When I was young
 Then I grew
 The colours multiplied
 Became a million shades of blue
 I'm living in Orwell's world
 The embrace, it was so soft
 We're living with Orwell's truths
 It didn't wake us up
 Deep cover, deep
 My passions breathe
 Far beneath any sight
 Running like the swirling, teeming streets
 In the darkest of nights
 I'm asleep in Metropolis
 You will wake me with a Judas kiss
 I'm asleep in Metropolis
 You will wake me with a Judas kiss
