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.
A last minute decision
Lay it all on the line
Glasspipe recollections of antichrist
The nominees all on fire
Cash money upfront
We're all part of the scam
Dead stars at the end of a rope
A fake miracle to behold
Life is bright!
It'll take out your eyes!
Burn these lies!
Cut away the ties!
Ninety-nine, ninety-nine knives
Ninety-nine knives inside
Ninety-nine, ninety-nine
Ninety-nine knives inside
Separate the symptoms
From the real disease
A pale ghostlike redition of consequence
The irony covers the crime
Re-enact the trauma
A safe pattern to fuse
Preteens giving head in the backroom
A family built on abuse
Life is bright!
It'll take out your eyes!
Burn these lies!
Cut away the ties!
Ninety-nine, ninety-nine knives
Ninety-nine knives inside
Ninety-nine, ninety-nine
Ninety-nine knives inside
No one gets out alive!
Ninety-nine, ninety-nine (ninety-nine)
Ninety-nine knives inside (ninety-nine)
Ninety-nine, ninety-nine
Ninety-nine hopeless fucking usless empty ways to die
Lay it all on the line
Glasspipe recollections of antichrist
The nominees all on fire
Cash money upfront
We're all part of the scam
Dead stars at the end of a rope
A fake miracle to behold
Life is bright!
It'll take out your eyes!
Burn these lies!
Cut away the ties!
Ninety-nine, ninety-nine knives
Ninety-nine knives inside
Ninety-nine, ninety-nine
Ninety-nine knives inside
Separate the symptoms
From the real disease
A pale ghostlike redition of consequence
The irony covers the crime

Life is bright!
It'll take out your eyes!
Burn these lies!
Cut away the ties!
Ninety-nine, ninety-nine knives

Ninety-nine, ninety-nine
Ninety-nine knives inside
No one gets out alive!
Ninety-nine, ninety-nine (ninety-nine)

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Holiday

Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
