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.
had a deal with Heaven but it fell through
I had a dream or seven and I'm not sure which one came true
I'm the one that never runs, I'm the one that never stays
I'm the one that disappears, I'm the one that never fades
I am clear and solid truth, I am just one big betray
Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love you, tomorrow.
I dream of days that go slow, I dream of someone that won't go
Forget what's coming, forget what's went
Let's make some laws that make some sense
Something stolen or something lent
A preacher or a president
That never lies and never sins
All tells us what a mess we're in
Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love you, tomorrow.
I dream of days that go slow, I dream of someone that won't go
I had a deal with Heaven but it fell through
I had a dream or seven, but now I'm not sure which one came true
We had a deal, but now I'm not sure
I dream of days that go slow, I dream of someone that won't go
I had a dream or seven and I'm not sure which one came true
I'm the one that never runs, I'm the one that never stays
I'm the one that disappears, I'm the one that never fades
I am clear and solid truth, I am just one big betray
Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love you, tomorrow.
I dream of days that go slow, I dream of someone that won't go
Forget what's coming, forget what's went
Let's make some laws that make some sense
Something stolen or something lent
A preacher or a president
That never lies and never sins
All tells us what a mess we're in
Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love you, tomorrow.
I dream of days that go slow, I dream of someone that won't go
I had a deal with Heaven but it fell through
I had a dream or seven, but now I'm not sure which one came true
We had a deal, but now I'm not sure
I dream of days that go slow, I dream of someone that won't go

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.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
