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.
I'm falling into words
I never knew
I never meant to say the words
"I love you"
But it's in my heart
And it feels new
Is it true for you?
Is it true for you?
Of course you'd like to claim
That we'd be friends
It couldn't stay that way
'Cause we pretend
That I heard about
Your new boyfriend
Where did I go wrong?
Where did I go wrong?
I'm sorry I forgot your birthday
I'm sorry 'cause I'm a shit face
I thought it was on a Wednesday
A Monday or a Tuesday
It's all the same to me
So what would make you happy?
Tell me, 'cause I'm sorry
These colors that we bind
Look all the same to me
I know that you've been hurt
But in the end
I'd like to say it's worth
All the things that we did
Now you found me out
My inside stand
What I have done wrong?
What I have done wrong?
I'm sorry I forgot your birthday
I'm sorry 'cause I'm a shit face
I thought it was on a Wednesday
A Monday or a Tuesday
It's all the same to me
So what would make you happy?
Tell me, 'cause I'm sorry
These colors that we bind
Look all the same to me
I couldn't take the things
Away from you
I made mistakes
But so have you
We could have it work
But we lost
When you know
You didn't have to
You didn't have to
Didn't have to
I'm sorry I forgot your birthday
I thought it was on a Wednesday
What did all your friends say?
They're all the same to me
So what would make you happy?
Tell me, 'cause I'm sorry
These days, they go by
Feel all the same to me
Feel all the same to me
Feel all the same to me
Feel all the same to me
Feel all the same to me
I never knew
I never meant to say the words
"I love you"
But it's in my heart
And it feels new
Is it true for you?
Is it true for you?
Of course you'd like to claim
That we'd be friends
It couldn't stay that way
'Cause we pretend
That I heard about
Your new boyfriend
Where did I go wrong?
Where did I go wrong?
I'm sorry I forgot your birthday
I'm sorry 'cause I'm a shit face
I thought it was on a Wednesday
A Monday or a Tuesday
It's all the same to me
So what would make you happy?
Tell me, 'cause I'm sorry
These colors that we bind
Look all the same to me
I know that you've been hurt
But in the end
I'd like to say it's worth
All the things that we did
Now you found me out

What I have done wrong?
What I have done wrong?
I'm sorry I forgot your birthday

So what would make you happy?
Tell me, 'cause I'm sorry
These days, they go by
Feel all the same to me
Feel all the same to me
Feel all the same to me
Feel all the same to me
Feel all the same to me

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.

Little Feat
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”

He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
