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 have seen everything right through these eyes
and i am far from done living
set me up a drink
and look at the skies
sometimes i need to free my mind
right before the stars, they will fly
the charge remains the box
and this is how you live forever
Sometimes you just know life
and the differences are nothing else
and all of this world is alive
yet, only true life, has a heart
I give you this heart and every bit of my soul
this blood, sweat, and all of my tears
some portrayal of the final act
chargebox will always stay intact
If i could give you everything tonight
i'd give you a brand new world
to keep someplace, safe
someplace, calm
forever it will stay
forever it is loved away
(and i would) light, every single shadow tonight
(cause today) the chargebox lives on!
CHARGEBOX IS LIFE!
live the future; existance is forever!
(*Repeat Till Fading*)
*Spoken Ending*: All True Lives Have Souls,
And With The Souls Come Desires,
In This World, There Is Something,
Something We Call Hope,
And Those Who Carry It,
All Who Believe In It,
Catch The Ability To Fly, Soar,
To The Dreams,...
This My Friends, Is Really Chargebox,
And It Lives, Now.

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

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.
Light Up The Sky

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.

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.
in chargebox, the more clearer meaning of the song, itself, is basically the more personally out of character, more interview-esque piece ive made, basically, describing that i put all of my emotional aspects into this, trying to tell myself as well as the listener, not to give up, when all i was doing was trying to fight giving up, myself..
it tells of the sacrifice one must put into something in order to achieve far above and beyond any expectations.
