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.
It's never been so crystal clear
that I've been dying six months a year.
Arguing with strangers about why I'm still here.
No one lets me forget
questions about my relevance
and I'm starting to believe their arguments in my self-defense.
It's just my self-destructiveness
and always wasting all my breath.
And it's still a mystery why I'm doubting all my dreams.
All the things that I say will someday fade away
but the message in the songs has kept me sane all along.
All the things that I say will someday fade away
but the message in the songs has kept me sane all along.
The years hit like fist to face
and some days I've tried to replace.
This person with the same god-given name.
Some days I shake till noon
I've tried to explain to overcrowded rooms
across these states my narrow point of view
but what can I do?
It's just my self-destructiveness
and always wasting all my breath.
And it's still a mystery why I'm doubting all my dreams.
All the things that I say will someday fade away
but the message in these songs has kept me sane all along.

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
Van Halen
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.
The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
K- So maybe some of the things in this song are shocking to people but i think it makes prefect sense. He sings about what he cares about and is trying to deliver his message to everybody.
I think this is one of the only songs I like on In With The Out Crowd, its sad... Anyhoo, yeah, I think its about when you've been in a band so long and you've just been singing and writing and guitarring (is that a word?) your heart out and you just think "wait, what am I doing all this for" and they just want to make it clear. To me the title gives the general idea, y'know, "PS, shock the world, cause if we don't who will?" Don't forget what the music's about.
see what this song is really about is the relationship of recovery from addiction and feeling self defeated..."sometimes i shake til noon...Somedays I shake til noon I've tried to explain to overcrowded rooms Across these states my narrow point of view But what can I do? get it
