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.
Calling all cars we've got another victim
'Cause my love has become an affliction
What did you expect from me?
What did you expect from me?
I'm sorry but think I got to mention
That I lied at my very first confession
What did you expect from me?
What did you expect from me?
'Cause this has been building since I have been breathing
And I know how it's going to end
So will you scatter my ashes where they won't be found?
I kept my word when I swore that I would let you down
And now that I'm gone, try to forget me and just move on
So will you scatter my ashes where they won't be found?
I kept my word and you hate me for it now
But you knew all along, try to forget me and just move on
Oh, my dear what have I gone and done now?
It's curtain call, I'm about to take my last bow
What did you expect from me?
What did you expect from me?
Without giving away the entire ending
I ruined the evening again
So will you scatter my ashes where they won't be found?
I kept my word when I swore that I would let you down
And now that I'm gone, try to forget me and just move on
So will you scatter my ashes where they won't be found?
I kept my word and you hate me for it now
But you knew all along, try to forget me and just move on
I don't have love left inside, inside
And I don't have love left inside, inside
Are you desperate for an answer?
I don't have an ounce of good left in me now
That's why I walked out
So will you scatter my ashes where they won't be found?
I kept my word when I swore that I would let you down
And now that I'm gone, try to forget me and just move on
So will you scatter my ashes where they won't be found?
I kept my word and you hate me for it now
You hate me for it now, try to forget me and just move on
I am not the one that you should blame
So take what I left you for the pain
I am not the one that you should blame
So take what I left you for the pain
And do your best to forget my name
'Cause my love has become an affliction
What did you expect from me?
What did you expect from me?
I'm sorry but think I got to mention
That I lied at my very first confession
What did you expect from me?
What did you expect from me?
'Cause this has been building since I have been breathing
And I know how it's going to end
So will you scatter my ashes where they won't be found?
I kept my word when I swore that I would let you down
And now that I'm gone, try to forget me and just move on
So will you scatter my ashes where they won't be found?
I kept my word and you hate me for it now
But you knew all along, try to forget me and just move on
Oh, my dear what have I gone and done now?
It's curtain call, I'm about to take my last bow
What did you expect from me?
What did you expect from me?
Without giving away the entire ending
I ruined the evening again
So will you scatter my ashes where they won't be found?
I kept my word when I swore that I would let you down
And now that I'm gone, try to forget me and just move on
So will you scatter my ashes where they won't be found?
I kept my word and you hate me for it now
But you knew all along, try to forget me and just move on
I don't have love left inside, inside
And I don't have love left inside, inside
Are you desperate for an answer?
I don't have an ounce of good left in me now
That's why I walked out
So will you scatter my ashes where they won't be found?
I kept my word when I swore that I would let you down
And now that I'm gone, try to forget me and just move on
So will you scatter my ashes where they won't be found?
I kept my word and you hate me for it now
You hate me for it now, try to forget me and just move on
I am not the one that you should blame
So take what I left you for the pain
I am not the one that you should blame
So take what I left you for the pain
And do your best to forget my name

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
its about religion
Really? I was thinking the song was Buddy reflecting on a past relationship.
