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.
I took off my iron smile
Because I found it weighed me down
Tomorrow when the world wakes up
I'll be in another town
You don't know what you want
At this moment you think it's me so you
Move your hand across my knee
Turn me into some novelty
Yes I'm one more girl on the stage
Just one more ass that got stuffed in some jeans
Just one more day that you don't find true love
No, you don't know what it means
Did you ever take the time to
Think about who I might be
Where I've been or
What I'm thinking or
Who I love or what I see
One more girl on the road
You might pass on your way home
Someone's sister, someone's wife or
Just some bitch who's probably
Got no life and yes I'm
One more girl on the stage
Just one more ass that got stuffed into jeans
Just one more day that you don't find true love
No, you don't know what it means
One day we'll be a pile of ashes
For the best of time, it passes
So take your hand off my knee
Do you know what it means to be
One more girl on the stage
Just one more ass that got stuffed in some jeans
Just one more day that you don't find true love
No, you don't know what it means
Because I found it weighed me down
Tomorrow when the world wakes up
I'll be in another town
You don't know what you want
At this moment you think it's me so you
Move your hand across my knee
Turn me into some novelty
Yes I'm one more girl on the stage
Just one more ass that got stuffed in some jeans
Just one more day that you don't find true love
No, you don't know what it means
Did you ever take the time to
Think about who I might be
Where I've been or
What I'm thinking or
Who I love or what I see
One more girl on the road
You might pass on your way home
Someone's sister, someone's wife or
Just some bitch who's probably
Got no life and yes I'm
One more girl on the stage
Just one more ass that got stuffed into jeans
Just one more day that you don't find true love
No, you don't know what it means
One day we'll be a pile of ashes
For the best of time, it passes
So take your hand off my knee
Do you know what it means to be
One more girl on the stage
Just one more ass that got stuffed in some jeans
Just one more day that you don't find true love
No, you don't know what it means

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

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.
The interpretation on The Wreckers' version of this song says it all. However, I discovered that it's also about women and fame ("One more girl on the stage"), the pointless big butt trend ("One more ass stuffed in some jeans"), and catcalling ("One more girl on the road/You might pass on your way home").
