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.
Look at me, I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree
And I feel like I'm clinging to a cloud
I can't understand, I get misty just holding your hand
Walk my way and a thousand violins begin to play
Or it might be the sound of your hello
That music I hear, I get misty the moment you're near
You can say that you're leading me on
But it's just what I want you to do
Don't you notice how hopelessly I'm lost?
That's why I'm following you
On my own, would I wander through this wonderland alone?
Never knowing my right foot from my left
My hat from my glove, I'm too misty and too much in love
Oh yes, I'm in, oh, what a feeling
Oh, you can say that you're leading me on
But it's just want I want you to do
Don't you notice I'm hopelessly so lost?
That's why I'm following you
On my own, would I wander through this wonderland alone?
Never knowing my right foot from my left
My hat from my glove, I'm too misty and too much in love
I'm too misty, too misty and too much in love
I'm too misty, too much in love
If that's possible, I don't know
And I feel like I'm clinging to a cloud
I can't understand, I get misty just holding your hand
Walk my way and a thousand violins begin to play
Or it might be the sound of your hello
That music I hear, I get misty the moment you're near
You can say that you're leading me on
But it's just what I want you to do
Don't you notice how hopelessly I'm lost?
That's why I'm following you
On my own, would I wander through this wonderland alone?
Never knowing my right foot from my left
My hat from my glove, I'm too misty and too much in love
Oh yes, I'm in, oh, what a feeling
Oh, you can say that you're leading me on
But it's just want I want you to do
Don't you notice I'm hopelessly so lost?
That's why I'm following you
On my own, would I wander through this wonderland alone?
Never knowing my right foot from my left
My hat from my glove, I'm too misty and too much in love
I'm too misty, too misty and too much in love
I'm too misty, too much in love
If that's possible, I don't know

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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.

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.
