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.
There's four words
On the tip of my tongue
That I couldn't say to just anyone
Maybe I'm crazy to say them to you
My hearts fighting
Sweet temptations - since you sparked my imagination
Baby baby - I'm bad about you
Trying hard to keep control
And tell you more than you need to know
Anything to keep my cool - tow the line not break the rules
I've been good for most of my life
But you could change all that tonight
Baby,baby I'm bad about you
Trying hard to keep control
And tell you more than you need to know
Anything to keep my cool - tow the line not break the rules
My hearts fighting
Sweet temptations - since you sparked my imagination
Baby baby - I'm bad about you
I've been good for most of my life
But you could change all that tonight
Baby,baby I'm bad about you
Baby,baby I'm bad about you
On the tip of my tongue
That I couldn't say to just anyone
Maybe I'm crazy to say them to you
My hearts fighting
Sweet temptations - since you sparked my imagination
Baby baby - I'm bad about you
Trying hard to keep control
And tell you more than you need to know
Anything to keep my cool - tow the line not break the rules
I've been good for most of my life
But you could change all that tonight
Baby,baby I'm bad about you
Trying hard to keep control
And tell you more than you need to know
Anything to keep my cool - tow the line not break the rules
My hearts fighting
Sweet temptations - since you sparked my imagination
Baby baby - I'm bad about you
I've been good for most of my life
But you could change all that tonight
Baby,baby I'm bad about you
Baby,baby I'm bad about you

Van Halen
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[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.
Blue
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.
