Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
im not sure anymore if anything i doo
ever seems to concern you now ...anyhow
im so fed up, the confuzion you put me threw
im so glad were threw, finished, finitio,
finally seeing through all this mess
you didnt want me to figure, the things you never tried to confess
still i stood with my hands behind my back
i couldnt help standing against that wall
feeling you with that nife in my back,
i didnt try to move, id let you peirce through
still i guess i just couldnt forget it when the only thing i said
the only thing id ask is to have you back
my thoughts have lead me to regret
the days i wasted and the time i spent
listening to youre excuses i should have
never stood for your abuses
why did you enjoy making me feel this way
did i deserve to be treated this way
ive tried so hard to get over these things
ive tried so hard to forget
but sometimes somethings arent worth forgeting\
something arent worth regretting
sometimes, somethings dont seem to be so much
they dont seem to be so hard
sometimes i find my self sitting and i wonder
how a person like you could ever make me feel the way i do
ever seems to concern you now ...anyhow
im so fed up, the confuzion you put me threw
im so glad were threw, finished, finitio,
finally seeing through all this mess
you didnt want me to figure, the things you never tried to confess
still i stood with my hands behind my back
i couldnt help standing against that wall
feeling you with that nife in my back,
i didnt try to move, id let you peirce through
still i guess i just couldnt forget it when the only thing i said
the only thing id ask is to have you back
my thoughts have lead me to regret
the days i wasted and the time i spent
listening to youre excuses i should have
never stood for your abuses
why did you enjoy making me feel this way
did i deserve to be treated this way
ive tried so hard to get over these things
ive tried so hard to forget
but sometimes somethings arent worth forgeting\
something arent worth regretting
sometimes, somethings dont seem to be so much
they dont seem to be so hard
sometimes i find my self sitting and i wonder
how a person like you could ever make me feel the way i do

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
