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.
Your vision came,
It kept me out of bed,
Slid between my sheets,
Gonna split my head.
Somebody tame
The beast the dwells within,
The bittersweet nightmares
I fixed to grind you in.
you're vision came,
It kept me out of bed,
The thrill that you give's
Gonna kill me dead,
Hey little girl,
No reason to shout.
You made up your own dreams
Now you can get yourself around.
Cut me up, break me off baby,
Don't let go ‘til I can't breathe.
I may run but I still want it
Follow me into my dream.
Cut me up, break me off baby,
Don't let go ‘til I can't breathe.
I may run but I still want it
Fill the night up with my scream (ahhhh!)
Cut me up, cut it through me (ow, ow, oww!)
Cut me up, cut it through me (ow, ow, oww!)
Cut me up, cut it through me (ow, ow, oww!)
Cut me up, cut it through me (ow, ow, oww!)
Pleasure pain burning in my bed,
Your pins hit my skin until it bled.
The fuck will lift
When our bodies feel the sweat,
That ain't no feel when your panties getting wet,
Pleasure pain kept me out of bed,
The thrill that you give's gonna kill me dead.
Your beauty ripped my world apart,
Now I'm coming back to settle up and take your heart
(Chorus)
Cut me up, cut me up, dreams, I can't breathe,
Cut me up, give it to me, cut me up, come on
Come on, breathe, cut me up, cut me up, I can't breathe…
It kept me out of bed,
Slid between my sheets,
Gonna split my head.
Somebody tame
The beast the dwells within,
The bittersweet nightmares
I fixed to grind you in.
you're vision came,
It kept me out of bed,
The thrill that you give's
Gonna kill me dead,
Hey little girl,
No reason to shout.
You made up your own dreams
Now you can get yourself around.
Cut me up, break me off baby,
Don't let go ‘til I can't breathe.
I may run but I still want it
Follow me into my dream.
Cut me up, break me off baby,
Don't let go ‘til I can't breathe.
I may run but I still want it
Fill the night up with my scream (ahhhh!)
Cut me up, cut it through me (ow, ow, oww!)
Cut me up, cut it through me (ow, ow, oww!)
Cut me up, cut it through me (ow, ow, oww!)
Cut me up, cut it through me (ow, ow, oww!)
Pleasure pain burning in my bed,
Your pins hit my skin until it bled.
The fuck will lift
When our bodies feel the sweat,
That ain't no feel when your panties getting wet,
Pleasure pain kept me out of bed,
The thrill that you give's gonna kill me dead.
Your beauty ripped my world apart,
Now I'm coming back to settle up and take your heart
(Chorus)
Cut me up, cut me up, dreams, I can't breathe,
Cut me up, give it to me, cut me up, come on
Come on, breathe, cut me up, cut me up, I can't breathe…

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
Gentle Hour

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
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/
