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.
If I don't hear from you by two AM
I can assume that you found something better to do
It's easy to see what's happening
You're so lost at twenty-three
You can't argue with the truth when no one really knows you
Not moving forward
Looks like I'm just missing you again
You have to find what you left behind
If you ever want to see me again
I never want to see you again
I never want to see you again
I never want to see you again
I never want to see you again
I can't depend on you to leave me anything but all alone and empty
I'm sorry you're not sorry
And if you think I'm going to let this slide
You've got another thing coming
Aren't you tired of running?
Not moving forward
Looks like I'm just missing you again
You have to find what you left behind
If you ever want to see me again
I never want to see you again
(I want to see you around)
I never want to see you again
(I want to see you around)
I never want to see you again
(I want to see you around)
I never want to see you again
(I'll forget what you did)
You know I've been waiting for you
You know I've been waiting for you
You know it all went wrong
I tried to save it all for the sing along
I've gone through hell and back with time to spare
I'd do it all again just to leave you there
Not moving forward
Looks like I'm just missing you again
You have to find what you left behind
If you ever want to see me again
Not moving forward
Looks like I'm just missing you again
You have to find what you left behind
If you ever want to see me again
I can assume that you found something better to do
It's easy to see what's happening
You're so lost at twenty-three
You can't argue with the truth when no one really knows you
Not moving forward
Looks like I'm just missing you again
You have to find what you left behind
If you ever want to see me again
I never want to see you again
I never want to see you again
I never want to see you again
I never want to see you again
I can't depend on you to leave me anything but all alone and empty
I'm sorry you're not sorry
And if you think I'm going to let this slide
You've got another thing coming

I never want to see you again

You know I've been waiting for you

You have to find what you left behind
If you ever want to see me again
Not moving forward
Looks like I'm just missing you again
You have to find what you left behind
If you ever want to see me again

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
