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 can't believe we met on this lonely crowded street
flashing identical bandoleers
if you were born in the gutter i was weened at your feet
watch out for flying native spears
i'm hip to your hypotenuse your geometric ways
your lion/lying lips are double stitched right below your waist
and those eyes you wear they wear me out
the weight you bear it tears me down
i'm falling apart i'm falling apart at the seams and you're just standing there
wearing that guerilla suit to try to scare me but it won't work
wearing that gorilla suit to try to scare me but it won't work
wearing that guerilla suit to try scare me but it won't work
wearing that gorilla suit to try and scare me but it won't
and i say captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain
flashing identical bandoleers
if you were born in the gutter i was weened at your feet
watch out for flying native spears

the weight you bear it tears me down
i'm falling apart i'm falling apart at the seams and you're just standing there
wearing that guerilla suit to try to scare me but it won't work
wearing that gorilla suit to try to scare me but it won't work
wearing that guerilla suit to try scare me but it won't work

and i say captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain captain

Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

i could of swear they were sayin compton, which made sense with the"say wht!" in the background but i am wrong great tune.
I always thought it was Compton too.
Ok this song is a tough one to get. It comes from the movie The Holy Mountain. There is a comic book in it called "Captain Captain", and the issue is called "Against the Peruvian Monster".
The book was made to get kids ready for a war against Peru, so they would grow up reading this comic, and then in 15 years when the Government decided to start the war, the kids would be pre-programed to fight the war.
