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.
I won't lose out anymore
I won't live that way
Seems sad to see that this was wasted on nothing at all
I've been putting too much emphasis on the wrong things
Yeah, the wrong things
So what if it doesn't work out
I'll keep faith that that's not what this is about
It's good to realize it's who you're with, not what you've done
I won't lose out anymore
I won't live that way
Seems sad to see that this was wasted on nothing at all
Our chances never gone
Keep moving on and on
I'm chasing my dreams
I'm saddling for nothing
On and on and it's the same old songs that hope for nothing
You won't have to wait for me
Don't wait for, don't wait for me
I'll end this hopeless mentality
I won't lose out anymore
I won't live that way
Seems sad to see that this was wasted on nothing at all
This time, let's start it all over
This time, I know I'll do better
But now, I think I learned enough to shut my mouth and let go
Somehow, if it doesn't work out
I'll keep faith that that's not what this is about
I won't lose out anymore
I won't live that way
Seems sad to see that this was wasted on nothing at all
I won't live that way
Seems sad to see that this was wasted on nothing at all
I've been putting too much emphasis on the wrong things
Yeah, the wrong things
So what if it doesn't work out
I'll keep faith that that's not what this is about
It's good to realize it's who you're with, not what you've done
I won't lose out anymore
I won't live that way
Seems sad to see that this was wasted on nothing at all
Our chances never gone
Keep moving on and on
I'm chasing my dreams
I'm saddling for nothing
On and on and it's the same old songs that hope for nothing
You won't have to wait for me
Don't wait for, don't wait for me
I'll end this hopeless mentality
I won't lose out anymore
I won't live that way
Seems sad to see that this was wasted on nothing at all
This time, let's start it all over
This time, I know I'll do better
But now, I think I learned enough to shut my mouth and let go
Somehow, if it doesn't work out
I'll keep faith that that's not what this is about
I won't lose out anymore
I won't live that way
Seems sad to see that this was wasted on nothing at all

@[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.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
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.
