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.
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
(I feel like, I feel like, I feel like)
I am sittin' on the clouds
I got smoke comin' from my seat
I can play basketball with the moon
I got the whole world at my feet
Playin' touch football, on marijuana street
Or, in a marijuana field, you are so beneath my cleets
Get high, so high, that I feel like lying
Down in a cigar, roll me up and smoke me 'cause
(I feel like dying)
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
(I feel like, I feel like, I feel like)
Swimming laps around a bottle of Louis the Thirteenth
Jumpin' off of a mountain into a sea of Codeine
I'm at the top of the top, but still I climb
And if I should ever fall
The ground would then turn to wine
Pop, pop, I feel like flying
Then I feel like frying, then
(I feel like dying)
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
(I feel like, I feel like, I feel like)
I can mingle with the stars
And throw a party on Mars
I am a prisoner, locked up behind Xanax bars
I have just boarded a plane, without a pilot
And violets are blue, roses are red
Daisies are yellow, the flowers are dead
Wish I can give you this feeling, I feel like buying
And if my dealer don't have no more, then
(I feel like dying)
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
(I feel like, I feel like, I feel like)
I am sittin' on the clouds
I got smoke comin' from my seat
I can play basketball with the moon
I got the whole world at my feet
Playin' touch football, on marijuana street
Or, in a marijuana field, you are so beneath my cleets
Get high, so high, that I feel like lying
Down in a cigar, roll me up and smoke me 'cause
(I feel like dying)
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
(I feel like, I feel like, I feel like)
Swimming laps around a bottle of Louis the Thirteenth
Jumpin' off of a mountain into a sea of Codeine
I'm at the top of the top, but still I climb
And if I should ever fall
The ground would then turn to wine
Pop, pop, I feel like flying
Then I feel like frying, then
(I feel like dying)
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
(I feel like, I feel like, I feel like)
I can mingle with the stars
And throw a party on Mars
I am a prisoner, locked up behind Xanax bars
I have just boarded a plane, without a pilot
And violets are blue, roses are red
Daisies are yellow, the flowers are dead
Wish I can give you this feeling, I feel like buying
And if my dealer don't have no more, then
(I feel like dying)
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
Van Halen
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.
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
Wu-Tang Clan
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.

Amazing

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.
if you're as addicted to promethezine as lil wayne is , you know how he feels ...
"I am sittin' on the clouds, I got smoke comin' from my seat I can play basketball with the moon, I got the whole world at my feet Playin' touch football, on marijuana street Or, in a marijuana field, you are so beneath my cleats"
hes perfect, hes amazinq , indestructable , God . when he's high, he wants to be hiqher , stronqer, better , qreater .
weezy writes most of his music fucked up .. hes ALWAYS fucked up . he's SUPER addicted to promethezine and he'll never stop because "once the druqs are done, he feels like dyinq" he doesnt mean done like doinq them, he means DONE like , GONE forever and he's too depressed and can't live without his druqs .
Jumpin' off of a mountain into a sea of Codeine
Jumping off a mountain will obviously result in death but he knows the danger of usinq druqs .. as does anyone with an addiction . But , he doesn't care ! "i'm at the top but still I climb..." He knows he has it made , lifes qreat , he's set . but he continues . " And if I should ever fall, the ground would then turn to wine"
"I am a prisoner, locked up behind Xanac bars I have just boarded a plane, without a pilot"
He knows the blind danger every time he uses, somethinq could happen and he could die . But he is a prisoner to his druqs, can't let them qo .
"Wish I can give you this feeling... I feel like buying And if my dealer don't have no more, then... (I feel like dying)"
