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.
To achieve my goal and dreams
I'd sell my soul quick in just a blink
That's how bad I want it I don't even have to think
No matter what it takes
I've been hungry and I despise the tastes
So Before I go let me live a dope life
I just wanna live a dope life
I wanna look back and say I lived a motherfucking dope life
Dope life
I woke up one morning and decided what I wanted
Fuck a closet full skeletons my whole crib is haunted
And It's kinda chilly like it's almost autumn
I've been in the dark but I broke through atoms
Broke through all these quantum's
Just to get where I was going
I've been dealing with these demons but I'm on em
I'm just living my life it don't matter what they talking
Cuz that's all they do and man they do it often
Fuck em all I'm not hating I'm just watching
But I'ma do me until I'm in my coffin
And all my bitches sobbing
Throw some flowers motherfuckers
Cuz I'm good this ain't nothing
To achieve my goal and dreams
I'd sell my soul quick in just a blink
That's how bad I want it I don't even have to think
No matter what it takes
I've been hungry and I despise the tastes
So Before I go let me live a dope life
I just wanna live a dope life
I wanna look back and say I lived a motherfucking dope life
Dope life
I've been doing me like I choose to
Cuz I don't care what anybody gotta say
Ain't nobody do it for me I've been pushing my way
All night all day
Sometimes it's just will
Sometimes I just pray
I'm out to get paid
I'll fight for my cause you bout to get slayed
We all in this game you bout to be played
Don't step to my shit you can catch a whole fade
Whipping too fast man I can't be chased
And if the blunt ain't fat then I can't be blazed
Make my dreams come true yeah I move at my pace
Cuz it ain't about luck it's work in my case
To achieve my goal and dreams
I'd sell my soul quick in just a blink
That's how bad I want it I don't even have to think
No matter what it takes
I've been hungry and I despise the tastes
So Before I go let me live a dope life
I just wanna live a dope life
I wanna look back and say I lived a motherfucking dope life
Dope life
I'd sell my soul quick in just a blink
That's how bad I want it I don't even have to think
No matter what it takes
I've been hungry and I despise the tastes
So Before I go let me live a dope life

I wanna look back and say I lived a motherfucking dope life

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.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
