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.
I'm in envy of addicts,
you're obsessed with stars.
Dont, dont you sound so excited,
showing me your vanity.
Whisper it once, just a little bit.
C'mon whisper it twice,
I cant stand to see the spotlight shine one more night.
Its killing me to see you.
Just tie the rope and kick the chair. Just leave me hanging there,
gasping for air yeah,
dont mind me three feet from the ceiling.
And i think i know why you never get to close.
It's cause youre too scared to.
When im with you theres no point in breathing.
You'd rather watch me drown,
then see your hands get wet.
You took the plot from stage to screen,
and turned it to an epic scene.
So whisper it once, tell me again.
C'mon whisper it twice,
I cant stand to see my whole life flah before my eyes.
When im with you theres no point in breathing.
No point in breathing
Just tie the rope and kick the chair. Just leave me hanging there,
gasping for air yeah,
dont mind me three feet from the ceiling.
And i think i know why you never get to close.
It's cause youre too scared to.
When im with you theres no point in breathing.
So, so you run away for no apparent reason,
cause you and i are changing with the seasons.
Don't give me an answer as to why youre leaving.
The tables are full but nobodys been dealing,
so fold your hand
C'mon and fold your hand
Just tie the rope and kick the chair. Just leave me hanging there,
gasping for air yeah,
dont mind me three feet from the ceiling.
And i think i know why you never get to close.
It's cause youre too scared to.
When im with you theres no point in breathing.
you're obsessed with stars.
Dont, dont you sound so excited,
showing me your vanity.
Whisper it once, just a little bit.
C'mon whisper it twice,
I cant stand to see the spotlight shine one more night.
Its killing me to see you.
Just tie the rope and kick the chair. Just leave me hanging there,
gasping for air yeah,
dont mind me three feet from the ceiling.
And i think i know why you never get to close.
It's cause youre too scared to.
When im with you theres no point in breathing.
You'd rather watch me drown,
then see your hands get wet.
You took the plot from stage to screen,
and turned it to an epic scene.
So whisper it once, tell me again.
C'mon whisper it twice,
I cant stand to see my whole life flah before my eyes.
When im with you theres no point in breathing.
No point in breathing
Just tie the rope and kick the chair. Just leave me hanging there,
gasping for air yeah,
dont mind me three feet from the ceiling.
And i think i know why you never get to close.
It's cause youre too scared to.
When im with you theres no point in breathing.
So, so you run away for no apparent reason,
cause you and i are changing with the seasons.
Don't give me an answer as to why youre leaving.
The tables are full but nobodys been dealing,

C'mon and fold your hand
Just tie the rope and kick the chair. Just leave me hanging there,
gasping for air yeah,
dont mind me three feet from the ceiling.
And i think i know why you never get to close.
It's cause youre too scared to.
When im with you theres no point in breathing.

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
