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.
Serrated words
Can cut so deep
They slash across my chest
And now they pour into my lungs
They will never be the same
Have you enjoyed your selfish games
What doesnt kill me, makes me numb
Please dont forgive me
I'm never waking up
This wont mean anything to you
No use resisting
Youll never get enough
This wont mean anything to you
The hole you left
I filled with the stones
You threw and now its time to sink
Rats will eat all my flesh and lick my bones clean
Id rather be here than there with you
I need you to say i dont mean anything to you
Ineed you to break, i dont mean anything to you
I cant breath with you near me
Cut so deep,taking over
Leave me here dead inside
I cant breath knowing youre alive
Can cut so deep
They slash across my chest
And now they pour into my lungs
They will never be the same
Have you enjoyed your selfish games
What doesnt kill me, makes me numb
Please dont forgive me
I'm never waking up
This wont mean anything to you
No use resisting
Youll never get enough
This wont mean anything to you
The hole you left
I filled with the stones
You threw and now its time to sink
Rats will eat all my flesh and lick my bones clean
Id rather be here than there with you
I need you to say i dont mean anything to you
Ineed you to break, i dont mean anything to you
I cant breath with you near me
Cut so deep,taking over
Leave me here dead inside
I cant breath knowing youre alive

@[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.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
this is my favorite tune of the new album. not sure what it's about. hard to tell if andrew and craig are singing about the same stuff.
i think the last verse in genius though
this song is quite hard to decipher, but to me it seems like it has to do with somebody (we'll call them 'a') who has known a person(we'll call them 'b') very close to them for a long time, but person b is becoming somebody totally different than who A originally remembered them as, to the point where theyre becoming condescending and sour towards A. A is finally realizing that knowing b is more painful to him then to not know b at all.
the first verse kind of speaks for itself meaning the things that b is saying is insulting and painful for A (serrated words can cut so deep etc etc etc). 'What doesnt kill me makes me numb' makes me think of all the things b is saying to A will eventually build a thick skin for him, and the condescedning remarks (as well as b himself) eventually wont matter to him anymore.
The chorus is a little shakier, but still has a bit of the same meaning "please don't forgive me, im never waking up" seems to describe that A might have done something wrong to recieve this treatment in b's eyes, but A doesnt want b to forgive him because that would make it harder for A to let go of this relationship. "this wont mean anything to you" could mean either that A is starting to become just another face in the crowd for b, or that the condescending notations that b is giving A wont change b at all because they just seem like harmless barbs to him. something of that sort. "no use resisting, you'll never get enough" simply means that b isn't going to stop anytime soon with their mannerisms towards A, so there's no use trying to keep him from doing so.
"the hole you left i filled with stones you threw" kind of means the same thing as above, with the hole representing all of the good memories that A had with b, and now in place of that are all the degrading comments b has used towards A.
"Id rather be here than there with you" is when A has decided that it is in fact easier for him to be out of this connection with b than in it.
"i need you to say i dont mean anything to you" could mean that A wants to know whether or not he's worth anything to b, because if he isn't he'll surely get out of b's life. "I need you to break" can mean that A wants b to just come right out and say it, instead of playing these mind games with him.
the last verse is by the time A is totally out of b's life, he still feels so much hatred towards b because of all the things b put him through, and now he knows its okay to release his anger towards b because he doesn't mean anything to b.
holy damn, rereading that comment its kind of complicated. still seems to make sense though....
didnt read Itkalimari's book on what the song is called i can relate to this song its about a friendship falling apart. one person wants the other to admit they mean nothing to them anymore but they wont. its fucked.
