Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
I'm in the Archipelago and I'm waiting to arrive.
I'm in the Archipelago and I know I'm still alive.
You finally told me where you had been thinking for so long.
And it breaks my heart wide open but I know that I'll be stronger next time.
So goodbye my love,
I'll miss it when it's gone.
Goodbye my love,
The ship is shipping on.
Goodbye my love,
I'll give it up into the fog.
Goodbye my love,
I think I knew it all along.
I'm in the Archipelago and I'm waiting to arrive.
I'm in the Archipelago and I know I'm still alive.
You finally told me where you had been thinking for so long.
And it breaks my heart wide open but I know that I'll be stronger next time.
So goodbye my love,
I'll miss it when it's gone.
Goodbye my love,
The ship is shipping on.
Goodbye my love,
I'll give it up into the fog.
Goodbye my love,
I think I knew it all along.
I knew it all along.
I knew it all along.
I'm in the Archipelago and I know I'm still alive.
You finally told me where you had been thinking for so long.
And it breaks my heart wide open but I know that I'll be stronger next time.
So goodbye my love,
I'll miss it when it's gone.
Goodbye my love,
The ship is shipping on.
Goodbye my love,
I'll give it up into the fog.
Goodbye my love,
I think I knew it all along.
I'm in the Archipelago and I'm waiting to arrive.
I'm in the Archipelago and I know I'm still alive.
You finally told me where you had been thinking for so long.
And it breaks my heart wide open but I know that I'll be stronger next time.
So goodbye my love,
I'll miss it when it's gone.
Goodbye my love,
The ship is shipping on.
Goodbye my love,
I'll give it up into the fog.
Goodbye my love,
I think I knew it all along.
I knew it all along.
I knew it all along.

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.

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.

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.
Beautiful and sad and somehow hopeful. Everything Mirah embodies.
