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.
You've seen so many faces that I've never seen before
I left an unrewarding message telling you to come on
Overdramatic, automatically assume I'll stay the same
'Cause there's a change in pressure
We're never gonna lie to you
(A change in pressure)
My broken veins say that if my heart stops beating
(A change in pressure)
We'll bleed the same way
(A change in pressure)
Oh, my broken veins say
Well I stay tuned and listen to the news
And try to fall asleep at night
Because I'm living in a house with just three walls
So I'm always getting recognized
'Cause there's a change in pressure
We're never gonna lie to you
(A change in pressure)
My broken veins say that if my heart stops beating
(A change in pressure)
We'll bleed the same way
(A change in pressure)
Oh, my broken veins say
(Change in pressure)
(Change in pressure)
(Change in pressure)
(Change in pressure)
'Cause there's a change in pressure
We're never gonna lie to you
(A change in pressure)
My broken veins say that if my heart stops beating
(A change in pressure)
We'll bleed the same way
(A change in pressure)
Oh, my broken veins say
I left an unrewarding message telling you to come on
Overdramatic, automatically assume I'll stay the same
'Cause there's a change in pressure
We're never gonna lie to you
(A change in pressure)
My broken veins say that if my heart stops beating
(A change in pressure)
We'll bleed the same way
(A change in pressure)
Oh, my broken veins say
Well I stay tuned and listen to the news
And try to fall asleep at night
Because I'm living in a house with just three walls
So I'm always getting recognized
'Cause there's a change in pressure
We're never gonna lie to you
(A change in pressure)
My broken veins say that if my heart stops beating
(A change in pressure)
We'll bleed the same way
(A change in pressure)
Oh, my broken veins say
(Change in pressure)
(Change in pressure)
(Change in pressure)
(Change in pressure)
'Cause there's a change in pressure
We're never gonna lie to you
(A change in pressure)
My broken veins say that if my heart stops beating
(A change in pressure)
We'll bleed the same way
(A change in pressure)
Oh, my broken veins say

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.

@[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.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
This song isn’t about Matty, himself, or his band’s fame. I’m pretty positive its about his parents' fame and how he had to grow up with it.
When he says, “You’ve seen so many faces that I’ve never seen before”, it means that his parents were traveling most of the time, while he and his brother were at home.
When he says, “Well I stay tuned, listen to the news and try to fall asleep at night”, he’s talking about how his parents were always on tv and in tabloids.
“Because I’m living in a house with just three walls, So I’m always getting recognized” means that the tabloids were always up in their business because of his parents' fame and how he’s always getting recognized not for who he is, but for his parents are.
