its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
And if i had something to say to you I'd whisper it softly,
Kiss you on your rosey lips and never let you off me.
Shiver on your roof and see your face lit by starlight,
Hold you through the night and watch that Colorado sunrise.
I've got five fingers on each hand for every mistake that I've made,
'Cause my tongue is tied to tonsels and i need to shit and shave.
I'm a shade to pale for handsome and have habits I can't shake,
And if you try to take that from me well I'll never be the same.
Trainwreck that I am,
And I am what I am what I am what I am,
A trainwreck, that I am
And I am what I am what I am what I am,
A trainwreck.
And as long as it's okay with you I think I'll stay right here.
I got no where to go 'cause where to go is up to you, dear.
Happy as a clam I see the glimmer in your eyes.
Hold you through the night and watch that Colorado sunrise.
No car and never cared cared because I got no place to go.
But in a room missing a wall,
I couldn't pay a plant to grow
You can try and make this pretty, pick up all my dirty clothes.
And if you never really get me then I guess you'll never know the
Trainwreck that I am.
And I am what I am what I am what I am,
A trainwreck that I am.
And I am what I am what I am what I am,
A trainwreck.
I've got five fingers on each hand for every mistake that I've made.
'Cause my tongue is tied to tonsels and I need to shit and shave,
I'm a shade to pale for handsome and have habits I can't shake.
And if you try to take that from me well I wouldn't be the same.
Trainwreck that I am
And I am what I am what I am what I am,
(Colorado sunrise)
A trainwreck, that I am.
And I am what I am what I am what I am,
(Colorado sunrise)
A trainwreck, that I am.
(If I had something to say to you I'd whisper it softly)
And I am what I am what I am what I am,
(Kiss you on your rosey lips and never let you off me)
A trainwreck, that I am.
(Shiver on your roof see your face lit by starlight)
And I am what I am what I am what I am,
(Hold you through the night and watch that Colorado sunrise)
A trainwreck.
Kiss you on your rosey lips and never let you off me.
Shiver on your roof and see your face lit by starlight,
Hold you through the night and watch that Colorado sunrise.
I've got five fingers on each hand for every mistake that I've made,
'Cause my tongue is tied to tonsels and i need to shit and shave.
I'm a shade to pale for handsome and have habits I can't shake,
And if you try to take that from me well I'll never be the same.
Trainwreck that I am,
And I am what I am what I am what I am,
A trainwreck, that I am
And I am what I am what I am what I am,
A trainwreck.
And as long as it's okay with you I think I'll stay right here.
I got no where to go 'cause where to go is up to you, dear.
Happy as a clam I see the glimmer in your eyes.
Hold you through the night and watch that Colorado sunrise.
No car and never cared cared because I got no place to go.
But in a room missing a wall,

You can try and make this pretty, pick up all my dirty clothes.
And if you never really get me then I guess you'll never know the
Trainwreck that I am.
And I am what I am what I am what I am,
A trainwreck that I am.
And I am what I am what I am what I am,
A trainwreck.
I've got five fingers on each hand for every mistake that I've made.
'Cause my tongue is tied to tonsels and I need to shit and shave,
I'm a shade to pale for handsome and have habits I can't shake.

Trainwreck that I am
And I am what I am what I am what I am,

And I am what I am what I am what I am,

And I am what I am what I am what I am,
(Hold you through the night and watch that Colorado sunrise)
A trainwreck.

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.

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.
Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
this song perfectly describes the love of my life and i he is just like this song it makes me cry i know that sounds stupid but if you met him youd cry too TT^TT
