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.
Another day shipwrecked
Can you hear my prayer?
If you have the answer let me know
Stolen from another life
You appeared in mine
It doesn't feel the same as it did before
And the tide it takes me away from you
And it brings me back again
And you slip like sand right through my hands
With every word you say
Oh, you'll find me, between
The devil and the deep blue sea
And I'm going under
Oh, you'll find me, between
The devil and the deep blue sea
And I'm going under
I'm coming up for air
Come and share my last breath
Save it for a time when I'm here no more
We're diving in the deep end
We can't turn back again
The battle never ends but you won the war
And the tide it takes me away from you
And it brings me back again
And you fall like water through my hands
With every word you say
Oh, you'll find me, between
The devil and the deep blue sea
And I'm going under
Oh, you'll find me, between
The devil and the deep blue sea
And I'm going under
(I'm drowning now)
(Come and save me, save me, oh)
I'm sinking like a stone
Never, never felt something like this before
And we're drowning, we need saving, so
This ended long ago
Never, never met someone like you before
And we're drowning, we need saving, so
You'll find me, between
The devil and the deep blue sea
And I'm going under
Oh, you'll find me, between
The devil and the deep blue sea
And I'm going under
I'm drowning now
Come and save me, save me, oh
Can you hear my prayer?
If you have the answer let me know
Stolen from another life
You appeared in mine
It doesn't feel the same as it did before
And the tide it takes me away from you
And it brings me back again
And you slip like sand right through my hands
With every word you say
Oh, you'll find me, between
The devil and the deep blue sea
And I'm going under
Oh, you'll find me, between
The devil and the deep blue sea
And I'm going under
I'm coming up for air
Come and share my last breath
Save it for a time when I'm here no more
We're diving in the deep end
We can't turn back again
The battle never ends but you won the war
And the tide it takes me away from you
And it brings me back again
And you fall like water through my hands
With every word you say
Oh, you'll find me, between
The devil and the deep blue sea
And I'm going under
Oh, you'll find me, between
The devil and the deep blue sea
And I'm going under
(I'm drowning now)
(Come and save me, save me, oh)
I'm sinking like a stone
Never, never felt something like this before
And we're drowning, we need saving, so
This ended long ago
Never, never met someone like you before
And we're drowning, we need saving, so
You'll find me, between
The devil and the deep blue sea
And I'm going under
Oh, you'll find me, between
The devil and the deep blue sea
And I'm going under
I'm drowning now
Come and save me, save me, oh

Holiday

@[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.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
