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.
I used to love you now I don't care
Now I turn around, you're everywhere
So you can chew me up and spit me out
You're just a little bitch I cared about
I used to love you now I don't care
Now I turn around, you're everywhere
So you can chew me up and spit me out
You're just a little bitch I cared about
I know you can see me
But you don't believe me
I know that you're lonely
Time will tell and time is hell
No sex or violence
No morbid silence
Forever sleeping
You won't stop breathing
No sex or violence
No morbid silence
Forever sleeping
You won't stop breathing
You hold me captive and it's not fair
Progressed insanity is everywhere
You need to love me but you kicked me out
My head is wandering so knock me out
I keep my head afloat I'm drowning in
The muddy water pulls me down again
I used to love me but I hate me now
I'm just a little bitch I cared about
I know you can see me
But you don't believe me
I know that you're lonely
Time will tell and time is hell
No sex or violence
No morbid silence
Forever sleeping
You won't stop breathing
No sex or violence
No morbid silence
Forever sleeping
You won't stop breathing
No sex or violence
No morbid silence
Forever sleeping
You won't stop breathing
Now I turn around, you're everywhere
So you can chew me up and spit me out
You're just a little bitch I cared about
I used to love you now I don't care
Now I turn around, you're everywhere
So you can chew me up and spit me out
You're just a little bitch I cared about
I know you can see me
But you don't believe me
I know that you're lonely
Time will tell and time is hell
No sex or violence
No morbid silence
Forever sleeping
You won't stop breathing
No sex or violence
No morbid silence
Forever sleeping
You won't stop breathing
You hold me captive and it's not fair
Progressed insanity is everywhere
You need to love me but you kicked me out
My head is wandering so knock me out
I keep my head afloat I'm drowning in
The muddy water pulls me down again
I used to love me but I hate me now
I'm just a little bitch I cared about
I know you can see me
But you don't believe me
I know that you're lonely
Time will tell and time is hell
No sex or violence
No morbid silence
Forever sleeping
You won't stop breathing
No sex or violence
No morbid silence
Forever sleeping
You won't stop breathing
No sex or violence
No morbid silence
Forever sleeping
You won't stop breathing

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
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.
I think it is about fighting with his wife/girlfriend but can't get away from her because she is so famous.
