High life
I wonder how you kiss first thing in the morning
Before you go, go to work and your smiling at me
Do you laugh at my jokes, even the ones that you've heard before?
There be times when everything's not perfect, when we fight
Do you say things like I hate you or it's all your fault
Or do you say nothing at all
I don't know who you are
Don't even know your name
I wish we could talk but I don't have a number to call
So hold your hand up if you hear me, I've been searching but all that I
Found
Is everywhere that I go, standing alone in the crowd
Baby your right here in front of me
Am I looking to hard it's hard to see
Oh, give me a sign; I'm starting to wonder if you've lost your way
I've been right here waiting patiently, your lane should be right here next
To me
I need you tonight, think of you all of the time
I don't know who you are
Don't even know your name
I wish we could talk but I don't have a number to call
So hold your hand up if you hear me, I've been searching but all that I
Found
Is everywhere that I go is standing alone in the crowd
And I need you now... I need you now
I wonder how you kiss, how you fight, how you laugh, how you smile
All of the time
I don't know who you are
Don't even know your name
I wish we could talk but I don't have a number to call
So hold your hand up if you hear me, I've been searching but all that I
Found
Is everywhere that I go, standing alone in the crowd
And I need you now I need you now
Before you go, go to work and your smiling at me
Do you laugh at my jokes, even the ones that you've heard before?
There be times when everything's not perfect, when we fight
Do you say things like I hate you or it's all your fault
Or do you say nothing at all
I don't know who you are
Don't even know your name
I wish we could talk but I don't have a number to call
So hold your hand up if you hear me, I've been searching but all that I
Found
Is everywhere that I go, standing alone in the crowd
Baby your right here in front of me
Am I looking to hard it's hard to see
Oh, give me a sign; I'm starting to wonder if you've lost your way
I've been right here waiting patiently, your lane should be right here next
To me
I need you tonight, think of you all of the time
I don't know who you are
Don't even know your name
I wish we could talk but I don't have a number to call
So hold your hand up if you hear me, I've been searching but all that I
Found
Is everywhere that I go is standing alone in the crowd
And I need you now... I need you now
I wonder how you kiss, how you fight, how you laugh, how you smile
All of the time
I don't know who you are
Don't even know your name
I wish we could talk but I don't have a number to call
So hold your hand up if you hear me, I've been searching but all that I
Found
Is everywhere that I go, standing alone in the crowd
And I need you now I need you now

Word Alive, The
Word Alive, The
This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone).
And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

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.
Fast Car

"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.

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
This song relates to everyone looking for love, it's about dreaming of that perfect partner and perfect life that everyone longs for. The lyrics are amazing saying he's standing alone in the crowd but hoping that his perfect partner is standing there alone also. It's about finding your soulmate but needing that bit of help finding them.
