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.
Hold your head up high, you're never wrong,
Somewhere in the right, you belong,
You would rather fight, then walk away.
What a lonely way, to breathe the air,
What an unlovely way, to say you care,
Now we're to far gone, for me to save.
and i never thought that we'd come to this,
Maybe there's beauty in goodbye,
(no-ones wrong or right,you would rather fight than walk away)
There's just no reason left to try,
(now it's gone too far, look at where we are)
You push me away, another black day,
Lost count of the reasons to cry.
Look what you've missed, living like this,
Nobody wins.
Searching for the truth, in your eyes
I find myself so lost, don't recognize,
The person now that you, you claim to be.
Don't know when to stop, or where to start,
You're just so caught up, with who you are,
and now you're far too high, for me to see
And i never thought that we'd come to this,
Maybe there's beauty in goodbye,
(no-ones wrong or right you would rather fight than walk away)
There's just no reason left to try,
(now it's gone to far, look at where we are)
You push me away, another black day,
Lost count of the reasons to cry,
Look what you've missed, living like this,
Nobody wins.
You, never say you're sorry,
Try to tell me that you love me,
But don't, it's too late to take it there
Maybe there's beauty in goodbye,
(no-ones wrong or right, you would rather fight than walk away)
There's just no reason left to try,
(now it's gone too far, look at where we are)
You push me away, another black day,
Lost count of the reasons to cry,
Look what you've missed, living like this,
Nobody wins.
Somewhere in the right, you belong,
You would rather fight, then walk away.
What a lonely way, to breathe the air,
What an unlovely way, to say you care,
Now we're to far gone, for me to save.

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.
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.

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”

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.
