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 not a game to play
Your eyes they show no fear
I burn inside and cannot wait to be
The man that feels your body close
Is here to set you free
To hold you near and satisfy your needs
You shiver as I touch your neck
And slowly close your eyes
I can't resist you even if I try
We both surrender to the touch
As we lay there side by side
And everything around us disappears
If you believe in love tonight
I'm gonna show you one more time
If you believe then let it out
No need to worry there's no doubt
If you believe, if you believe
If you believe, then let it out
As you run your fingers through my hair
Your lips come close to mine
The tension becomes more than I can bear
Then you wrap your arms around me
And I feel your every move
This feeling could now lead us anywhere
Now we leave the world behind us
This moment we both share
Just you and me, that's how it's meant to be
I never wanted you so much
I feel your every breath
As you gently whisper in my ear
If you believe in love tonight
I'm gonna show you one more time
If you believe then let it out
No need to worry there's no doubt
If you believe, if you believe
If you believe, then let it out
If you believe, if you believe
If you believe, then there's no doubt
If you believe in love tonight
If you believe in love tonight
I'm gonna show you one more time (show you one more time)
If you believe then let it out
No need to worry there's no doubt
If you believe, if you believe
Oh no, you gotta let it out baby
You gotta let it out baby
Your eyes they show no fear
I burn inside and cannot wait to be
The man that feels your body close
Is here to set you free
To hold you near and satisfy your needs
You shiver as I touch your neck
And slowly close your eyes
I can't resist you even if I try
We both surrender to the touch
As we lay there side by side
And everything around us disappears
If you believe in love tonight
I'm gonna show you one more time
If you believe then let it out
No need to worry there's no doubt
If you believe, if you believe
If you believe, then let it out
As you run your fingers through my hair
Your lips come close to mine
The tension becomes more than I can bear
Then you wrap your arms around me
And I feel your every move
This feeling could now lead us anywhere
Now we leave the world behind us
This moment we both share
Just you and me, that's how it's meant to be
I never wanted you so much
I feel your every breath
As you gently whisper in my ear
If you believe in love tonight
I'm gonna show you one more time
If you believe then let it out
No need to worry there's no doubt
If you believe, if you believe
If you believe, then let it out
If you believe, if you believe
If you believe, then there's no doubt
If you believe in love tonight
If you believe in love tonight
I'm gonna show you one more time (show you one more time)
If you believe then let it out
No need to worry there's no doubt
If you believe, if you believe
Oh no, you gotta let it out baby
You gotta let it out baby

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.

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
"Just you and me, that's how it's meant to be."
