He certainly did earn that reputation.
Now blue ain't the word for the way that I feel
That old storm brewing in this heart of mine
Someday crazy arms will hold somebody new
But now I'm so lonely all the time
Crazy arms that needs to hold somebody new
While your heart keeps saying "you're not mine, not mine, not mine, not mine"
My troubled mind grows blue to another you'll be wed
But now I'm so lonely all the time
Now take all those precious dreams I had for you and me
And take all that love I thought was mine
Some day your crazy arms will hold somebody new
But now I'm so lonely all the time
Crazy arms that needs to hold somebody new
While my yearning heart keeps saying "you're not mine, not mine, not mine, not mine"
My troubled mind grows blue to another you'll be wed
But now I'm so lonely all the time
That old storm brewing in this heart of mine
Someday crazy arms will hold somebody new
But now I'm so lonely all the time
Crazy arms that needs to hold somebody new
While your heart keeps saying "you're not mine, not mine, not mine, not mine"
My troubled mind grows blue to another you'll be wed
But now I'm so lonely all the time
Now take all those precious dreams I had for you and me
And take all that love I thought was mine
Some day your crazy arms will hold somebody new
But now I'm so lonely all the time
Crazy arms that needs to hold somebody new
While my yearning heart keeps saying "you're not mine, not mine, not mine, not mine"
My troubled mind grows blue to another you'll be wed
But now I'm so lonely all the time

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

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.

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.
I love this song, pretty much the way I felt after my ex and I broke the first time
