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.
Like a thunderstorm that pulls you deep into the night
She speaks to me in numbers and is gone when I open my eyes (She wants more)
You know I’ll just forget it if you give me a chance (One more time.)
I can’t desire something if it just isn’t there
It just isn’t there, it just isn’t there, it just isn’t there, it just isn’t there.
She’s in my blood and like a fire inside me
It consumes the air then leads me blindly
She has my hopes and dreams
And she‘s the one I see who screams go on, go on.
She doesn’t know who I am
I really want to tell her that this can’t go on tonight.
She’s in my blood, in like a broken glass
You take one last breath and she’ll leave you bruised tonight.
She was calling but I kept waiting by the phone.
She looked at me with her left eye closed and said
"You don’t know if you don’t know, then they wont know." (She wants more.)
You know I’ll just forget it if you give me a chance. (One more time.)
You can’t decide on something if it just isn’t there.
She’s in my blood, and like a fire inside me.
Consumes the air then leads me, leads me, l-l-l-l-leads..Me.
She’s in my blood, and like a fire inside me.
Consumes the air then leads me blindly.
She has my hopes and dreams
And she’s the one I see who screams "go on, go on."
She doesn’t know who I am
I really wanna tell her that this can’t go on tonight.
She’s in my blood, in like a broken glass
You take one last breath and she’ll leave you bruised tonight.
She is temptation, and temptation has it's fangs in me.
I never thought that I could live a lie so painfully.
Well she was blind and she’s taking her time
She goes on and on she takes a hold and never lets you go.
She’s in my blood, and like a fire inside me.
Consumes the air then leads me blindly
She has my hopes and dreams
And she’s the one I see who screams "go on, go on."
She doesn’t know who I am. (and like a fire inside me. Consumes the air then leads me blindly) She doesn’t know who I am. (she has my hopes and dreams, and she’s the one I see who screams "go on, go on.")
Go on. On. On.
She doesn’t know who I am
I really wanna tell her that this can’t go on tonight.
She’s in my blood, and like a broken glass
You’ll take one last breath and she’ll leave you bruised tonight.
She speaks to me in numbers and is gone when I open my eyes (She wants more)
You know I’ll just forget it if you give me a chance (One more time.)
I can’t desire something if it just isn’t there
It just isn’t there, it just isn’t there, it just isn’t there, it just isn’t there.
She’s in my blood and like a fire inside me
It consumes the air then leads me blindly
She has my hopes and dreams
And she‘s the one I see who screams go on, go on.
She doesn’t know who I am
I really want to tell her that this can’t go on tonight.
She’s in my blood, in like a broken glass
You take one last breath and she’ll leave you bruised tonight.

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.

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.

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
But at the end they fall like he is "falling into temptation" thats what i think...
