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.
Kate, it's your ride
Get your petals out and lay them in the aisle
Pretend
You're God and grow, and it's your day to wed
We found your man
He's drinking up, he's all-American
And he'll drive
He's volunteered with grace to end your life
We'll tidy up
It's sad to hold, but leave your shell to us
You explode
You firefly, you tiny boat, with oars
Feather oars
The world tilts back and pours and pours and so
You satellite
You tidal wave, you're a big surprise
And I've one more night
To be your mother
The signal interrupts
My baby's frequency, not strong enough
Remain in my hands and smile
We will miss you, but in time you'll get set up
And we will write
Hey, beauty supreme
Yeah, you were right about me
But can I get myself out from underneath
This guilt that will crush me?
And in the choir
I saw our sad Messiah
He was bored and tired of my laments
Said, "I died for you one time, but never again"
Never again, never again, never again, never again
Never again, never again, never again, never again
Well, I love you so much (Never again)
But do me a favor, baby, don't reply (Never again)
No, 'cause I can dish it out (Never again)
But I can't take it (Never again) - 2x
One will love you so much
But do me a favor, baby, don't reply
'Cause I can dish it out
But I can't take it
Two will love you so much
But do me a favor, baby, don't reply
'Cause I can dish it out
But I can't take it
Three will love you so much
But do me a favor, baby, don't reply
'Cause I can dish it out
But I can't take it
Four will love you so much
But do me a favor, baby, don't reply
'Cause I can dish it out
But I can't take it
Five will love you so much
But do me a favor, baby, don't reply
'Cause I can dish it out
But I can't take it
Six will love you so much
But do me a favor, baby, don't reply
'Cause I can dish it out
But I can't take it
Seven loves you so much
But do me a favor, baby, don't reply
'Cause I can dish it out
But I can't take it
Seven loves you so much (We'll never have to buy adjacent plots of earth)
But do me a favor, baby, don't reply (We'll never have to rot together underneath the dirt)
'Cause I can dish it out (I'll never have to lose my baby in the crowd)
But I can't take it (I should be laughing right now) - 3x
Get your petals out and lay them in the aisle
Pretend
You're God and grow, and it's your day to wed
We found your man
He's drinking up, he's all-American

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
