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 know it's hard for you
To understand what I'm going through
But now I sit here to remind myself
You're always dressed to kill
And you feel like you owe it to the world
But you owe it to yourself
And you're, you're not here
And I can't stop pretending
That you're forever mine, and I
I can't dream anymore since you left
I miss you singing me to sleep (singing me to sleep)
I can't wake anymore in your arms
I miss you singing me to sleep (singing me to sleep)
"Cheer up" my friends all say
"You're better alone anyway
But you're always on tour
And you're never home"
I'm always dressed to kill
And I feel like I owe it to the world
But I owe it to myself
And you're, you're not here
And I can't stop pretending
That you're forever mine, and I
I can't dream anymore since you left
I miss you singing me to sleep (singing me to sleep)
I can't wake anymore in your arms
I miss you singing me to sleep (singing me to sleep)
"Cheer up" my friends all say
And I can't stop pretending
That you're forever mine
You're better alone anyways
And you're not here, not here
I can't dream anymore since you left
I miss you singing me to sleep
I can't wake anymore in your arms
I miss you singing me to sleep
"Cheer up" my friends all say
To understand what I'm going through
But now I sit here to remind myself
You're always dressed to kill
And you feel like you owe it to the world
But you owe it to yourself
And you're, you're not here
And I can't stop pretending
That you're forever mine, and I
I can't dream anymore since you left
I miss you singing me to sleep (singing me to sleep)
I can't wake anymore in your arms
I miss you singing me to sleep (singing me to sleep)
"Cheer up" my friends all say
"You're better alone anyway
But you're always on tour
And you're never home"
I'm always dressed to kill
And I feel like I owe it to the world
But I owe it to myself
And you're, you're not here
And I can't stop pretending
That you're forever mine, and I
I can't dream anymore since you left
I miss you singing me to sleep (singing me to sleep)
I can't wake anymore in your arms
I miss you singing me to sleep (singing me to sleep)
"Cheer up" my friends all say
And I can't stop pretending
That you're forever mine
You're better alone anyways
And you're not here, not here
I can't dream anymore since you left
I miss you singing me to sleep
I can't wake anymore in your arms
I miss you singing me to sleep
"Cheer up" my friends all say
