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.
Everyday a shade of blue
You won't believe
What I'm going through
It just feels like I can't afford to let myself go
No oh no
Everyone is just the same
They touch me
But I can't say
There has been no one brighter than you
I can't deny these things that I do
Feels like the world's at stake 'cause
I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you
Heavenly that's what you are
You're burning me like a shining star
How am I supposed to be that king without you
Oh it's true yeah
Everyone is just the same
They love me
But I can't say
There has been no one brighter than you
I can't deny these things that I do
Feels like the world's at stake yeah
I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you
Yeah, yeah
There has been no one brighter than you
I can't deny these things that I do
Feels like the world's at stake 'cause
I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you
I have seen no light brighter than you
And I can't deny these things that I do
Feels like the world's at stake yeah
I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you, yeah for you
Everyday I sit down and I feel like I'm waiting
For you
I've been waiting for you
For you
I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you
You won't believe
What I'm going through
It just feels like I can't afford to let myself go
No oh no
Everyone is just the same
They touch me
But I can't say
There has been no one brighter than you
I can't deny these things that I do
Feels like the world's at stake 'cause
I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you
Heavenly that's what you are
You're burning me like a shining star
How am I supposed to be that king without you
Oh it's true yeah
Everyone is just the same
They love me
But I can't say
There has been no one brighter than you
I can't deny these things that I do
Feels like the world's at stake yeah
I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you
Yeah, yeah
There has been no one brighter than you
I can't deny these things that I do
Feels like the world's at stake 'cause
I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you
I have seen no light brighter than you
And I can't deny these things that I do
Feels like the world's at stake yeah
I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you, yeah for you
Everyday I sit down and I feel like I'm waiting
For you
I've been waiting for you
For you
I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
