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.
Caught in a world that's plagued by something they call love
A paradigm of illness is the beast I have become
The sights that I have seen could nearly bring me to my knees
I've seen exactly what it is, I never wanna be, but
I keep it deep inside myself
It's within me
Keep it deep within yourself
And sink with me
Last night I had the misfortune to see it all first hand
"Evacuate the premises", was the innate first command
What drives the need for all of this, will I ever understand?
Has someone failed to tell me of this master plan? But
I keep it deep inside myself
It's within me
Keep it deep within yourself
And sink with me
I keep it deep inside myself
It's within me
Keep it deep within yourself
And sink with me
With me, with me, with me, with me, wait
A paradigm of illness is the beast I have become
The sights that I have seen could nearly bring me to my knees
I've seen exactly what it is, I never wanna be, but
I keep it deep inside myself
It's within me
Keep it deep within yourself
And sink with me
Last night I had the misfortune to see it all first hand
"Evacuate the premises", was the innate first command
What drives the need for all of this, will I ever understand?
Has someone failed to tell me of this master plan? But
I keep it deep inside myself
It's within me
Keep it deep within yourself
And sink with me
I keep it deep inside myself
It's within me
Keep it deep within yourself
And sink with me
With me, with me, with me, with me, wait

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.
Amazing

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.
It's not about drugs! I think Malleus pretty much got it right.
