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.
You're such a baby
It's just a nosebleed
Leave me for a while, so you can go and cry
I did not say that
You make it up
Twist my words around, flip them upside-down
You cannot stay here
You must go home
It's nearly 3 o'clock, and now I'm seeing spots
Wake me up
Just to call me
Sleeping beauty
Oh, fine
That's fine
I got my hands up
I'm feeling vulnerable
Mm-hmm
One more message
It could not hold
So, you go to option B
Drive twenty miles to see me at my worst
Then off to work
Think of random things to say
Then leave me for the day
Wake me up
Just to call me
Sleeping beauty
Oh, fine
That's fine
I got my hands up
I'm feeling vulnerable
All your theories
On why I am so complex all the time
You try to pick my mind
But what about you?
You're so vague
And everything you tell
Is what keeps me coming back
Wake me up
Just to call me
Sleeping beauty
Oh, fine
That's fine
I got my hands up
I'm feeling vulnerable
Oh, wake me up
Just to call me
Sleeping beauty
Oh, fine
That's fine
I got my hands up
I'm feeling vulnerable
Mm-hmm
It's just a nosebleed
Leave me for a while, so you can go and cry
I did not say that
You make it up
Twist my words around, flip them upside-down
You cannot stay here
You must go home
It's nearly 3 o'clock, and now I'm seeing spots
Wake me up
Just to call me
Sleeping beauty
Oh, fine
That's fine
I got my hands up
I'm feeling vulnerable
Mm-hmm
One more message
It could not hold
So, you go to option B
Drive twenty miles to see me at my worst
Then off to work
Think of random things to say
Then leave me for the day
Wake me up
Just to call me
Sleeping beauty
Oh, fine
That's fine
I got my hands up
I'm feeling vulnerable
All your theories
On why I am so complex all the time
You try to pick my mind
But what about you?
You're so vague
And everything you tell
Is what keeps me coming back
Wake me up
Just to call me
Sleeping beauty
Oh, fine
That's fine
I got my hands up
I'm feeling vulnerable
Oh, wake me up
Just to call me
Sleeping beauty
Oh, fine
That's fine
I got my hands up
I'm feeling vulnerable
Mm-hmm

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 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,

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
I think it's, "I didn't say that/you made it up," not "didn't I say that."
This song reminds me of my brother-in-law and his struggles to make sure I'm going to school and not skipping. One time I used a nose bleed as an excuse to stay home and he called me a baby. I think "one more message" means one more warning. After he warned me a couple times not to miss class, he went to "option B." Now he comes to my house on his way to work every morning to make sure I wake up for school. I hate it because...well I look like a fricken ogre in the morning and I hate when people see me like that. So I feel "vulnerable." He says a couple random things and leaves, expecting me to just magically be fixed in the head and jump up for school with a smile on my face. Him and my sister also make up "theories" of why I am the way I am - that is, obsessed with my image and depressed all the time. It's too complex for them so they resort to calling me a selfish, manipulative 5 year old.
Like that's going to fucking help anything.
