Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
All this back and forth, dancing around our feelings
Tell me how you feel tonight
Can we take a second, just so we're clear
I don't wanna rewind
Just need a little more time, with you
If you're leaving, then I won't ask for you to wait
You have your reasons, some things aren't meant to stay the same
Oh babe, it's okay, but if tomorrow you're leaving
I guess I love you for today
I guess I love you for today
I don't wanna talk, there's no point in pretending
Show me something real tonight
Can we take a breath, just so you're clear
I don't wanna rewind
Just want a little more time
If you're leaving, then I won't ask for you to wait
You have your reasons, some things aren't meant to stay the same
Oh babe, it's okay, but if tomorrow you're leaving
I guess I love you for today
I guess I love you for today
I guess I love you for today
If you're leaving, then I won't ask for you to wait
You have your reasons, some things aren't meant to stay the same
Oh babe, it's okay, but if tomorrow you're leaving
I guess I love you for today
Tell me how you feel tonight
Can we take a second, just so we're clear
I don't wanna rewind
Just need a little more time, with you
If you're leaving, then I won't ask for you to wait
You have your reasons, some things aren't meant to stay the same
Oh babe, it's okay, but if tomorrow you're leaving
I guess I love you for today
I guess I love you for today
I don't wanna talk, there's no point in pretending
Show me something real tonight
Can we take a breath, just so you're clear
I don't wanna rewind
Just want a little more time
If you're leaving, then I won't ask for you to wait
You have your reasons, some things aren't meant to stay the same
Oh babe, it's okay, but if tomorrow you're leaving
I guess I love you for today
I guess I love you for today
I guess I love you for today
If you're leaving, then I won't ask for you to wait
You have your reasons, some things aren't meant to stay the same
Oh babe, it's okay, but if tomorrow you're leaving
I guess I love you for today

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.

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.
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 is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
