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.
Standin' in the pourin' rain
Watchin' all my years
Feelin' all the pain
Gonna take some time
For this heart of mine to find
Sometimes you win sometimes you lose
Its time for you to choose
Live for today
Don't wait 'til tomorrow
Why spend your time bein' somewhere you don't want to be
Rely on faith to get you through your sorrow
Nothing can stand in your way
So live for today
Lovers seem to fade away
Like a promise made
It's the price you have to pay
It's gonna take some time
For this heart of mine to shine
Sometimes you win sometimes you lose
Its time for you to choose
Live for today
Don't wait 'til tomorrow
Why spend your time bein' somewhere you don't want to be
Rely on faith to get you through your sorrow
Nothing can stand in your way
So live for today
So live for today
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose
It's time for you to choose
Live for today
Don't wait 'til tomorrow
Why spend your time bein' somewhere you don't want to be
Rely on faith to get you through your sorrow
Nothing can stand in your way
So live for today
So live for today
Live for today
Don't wait until tomorrow
Live for today
Live for today
Watchin' all my years
Feelin' all the pain
Gonna take some time
For this heart of mine to find
Sometimes you win sometimes you lose
Its time for you to choose
Live for today
Don't wait 'til tomorrow
Why spend your time bein' somewhere you don't want to be
Rely on faith to get you through your sorrow
Nothing can stand in your way
So live for today
Lovers seem to fade away
Like a promise made
It's the price you have to pay
It's gonna take some time
For this heart of mine to shine
Sometimes you win sometimes you lose
Its time for you to choose
Live for today
Don't wait 'til tomorrow
Why spend your time bein' somewhere you don't want to be
Rely on faith to get you through your sorrow
Nothing can stand in your way
So live for today
So live for today
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose
It's time for you to choose
Live for today
Don't wait 'til tomorrow
Why spend your time bein' somewhere you don't want to be
Rely on faith to get you through your sorrow
Nothing can stand in your way
So live for today
So live for today
Live for today
Don't wait until tomorrow
Live for today
Live for today

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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.
