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.
And we try to fix it up but its too late?
Lets give up, had enough, no more mistakes.
Here we go, Here we go..
'Cause you can't see where I'm comin' from, I feel so invisible
My lady got me goin' crazy 'cause we be havin problems and
I think that she ready to go away
Where she could be happy 'cause we be standin arguing and I can't really take it no more. No No
Too much of fussin' and fightin' this used to be so excitin' and now its just not invitin' no mo
Now baby why even botha if we can't help one another over
And we try to fix it up but its too late?
Lets give up, had enough, no more mistakes.
Here we go, Here we go..
'Cause you can't see where I'm comin' from, I feel so invisible
(She can't see me, hey she can't see me
The girl can't see me, no she can't see me)
I'm invisible
(She can't see me, hey she can't see me
The girl can't see me, no she can't see me)
I'm invisible
My lady don't even be listenin'
I be tryin to tell her but she says she can't take it no mo because
She can't really handle it
Love is something scandalous
I just let her walk out the door
Whatever
Whatever happens was meant to be
So why don't we sim-p-ly stop playin games men-t-ally (games, games, games)
Whatever we did or didn't lets hurry up and just get it over
And we try to fix it up but its too late
Lets give up, hands up, no more mistakes.
Here we go, Here we go..
'Cause you can't see where I'm comin' from, I feel so invisible
(She can't see me, hey she can't see me
The girl can't see me, no she can't see me)
I'm invisible
(She can't see me, hey she can't see me
The girl can't see me, no she can't, she can't, she can't)
I'm invisible
I'm invisible
I'm invisible
I got no visual
I be talking she be walking, walking with her eyes closed
Trying to get her attention, does she see me?
No she don't
I'm invisible, I'm invisible
I be yelling in her face but she doesn't even notice
I be speaking she be creeping, creeping with her eyes closed
Check her out, there she goes, creeping with her eyes closed
but its too late
Lets give up, had enough, no more mistakes.
Here we go, Here we go..
'Cause you can't see where I'm comin' from, I feel so..
I'm invisible
And we try to fix it up but its too late?
Lets give up, had enough, no more mistakes.
Here we go, Here we go..

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

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