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.
Under the moonlight, it’s too dark to see
To spend the night alone with me
Shoulder to shoulder, we’re on the prowl
The night grows old, the reasons down… to the ground
Stick to the path is what they said
Don’t take one more step
(Or we’ll end up dead)
Stick to the path is what they said
Don’t take one more step
(Or we’ll end up dead)
We hunt in a pack as we roam the street
And we’ll attack in a heart beat
For my actions I’m to blame
The attraction has made me change… I am not the same
Stick to the path is what they said
Don’t take one more step
(Or we’ll end up dead)
Stick to the path is what they said
Don’t take one more step
(Or we’ll end up dead)
I don’t know how to tell you, but I have to somehow
I used to be a werewolf but I’m alright now
I don’t know how to tell you, but I have to somehow
I used to be a werewolf but I’m alright now
But I’m alright now
Stick to the path is what they said
Don’t take one more step
(Or we’ll end up dead)
Stick to the path is what they said
Don’t take one more step
(Or we’ll end up dead)
Just like the rest (We’ll end up dead)
Just like the rest (We’ll end up dead)
Just like the rest (We’ll end up dead)
Just like the rest (We’ll end up dead)
To spend the night alone with me
Shoulder to shoulder, we’re on the prowl
The night grows old, the reasons down… to the ground
Stick to the path is what they said
Don’t take one more step
(Or we’ll end up dead)
Stick to the path is what they said
Don’t take one more step
(Or we’ll end up dead)
We hunt in a pack as we roam the street
And we’ll attack in a heart beat
For my actions I’m to blame
The attraction has made me change… I am not the same
Stick to the path is what they said
Don’t take one more step
(Or we’ll end up dead)
Stick to the path is what they said
Don’t take one more step
(Or we’ll end up dead)
I don’t know how to tell you, but I have to somehow
I used to be a werewolf but I’m alright now
I don’t know how to tell you, but I have to somehow
I used to be a werewolf but I’m alright now
But I’m alright now
Stick to the path is what they said
Don’t take one more step
(Or we’ll end up dead)
Stick to the path is what they said
Don’t take one more step
(Or we’ll end up dead)
Just like the rest (We’ll end up dead)
Just like the rest (We’ll end up dead)
Just like the rest (We’ll end up dead)
Just like the rest (We’ll end up dead)

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.
I Can't Go To Sleep

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
This song is about werewolves getting horny in the middle of the night. it's kickass :D
this song is ace.
ohh ohh oh "Stick to the path is what they said Don’t take one more step (Or we’ll end up dead)" i'm guessing its about being forced by sociey#ty into conforming
I LOVE THIS SONG. (:
'the reasons down… to the ground' - I think that's actually 'we'll raze this town... to the ground,' as in to completely destroy it.
:) they introduced this song at the manchester show in october 08 by saying 'this is for anyone who's ever wanted to be a werewolf.'
