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'm In The Middle Of A Midnight Rain
Looking In The Rear View Mirror Of My Car
From A Telephone Booth I See You Come
And There You Are With Him
And He Is There With You On Sea Side Avenue
Oh! Thanks, Thanks, Thanks, Thanks Monica
Thanks, Thanks, Thanks - Oh, For August Sad Songs
I Put The Tape On, To Cancel The Sound
Of All Rain Hitting On My Hood
Across The Street Upon The Lonely Ground
An Old Umbrella Swings
And I'm Remembering On Sea Side Avenue
Oh! Thanks, Thanks, Thanks, Thanks Monica
Thanks, Thanks, Thanks - Oh, For August Sad Songs
Mmm... I Won't Forget You
Mmm... I Won't Forget This Summer
Mmm... The City Called Your Name And You Turned It Into A Diamond
It's All Because Of You... Oh, It's Thanks To You... Oh! Monica
Back On The Bright And Shiny Highway
Was That Old Squall Really Last Night?
Taking My Sunglasses Out Of My Shirt
You Made My Whole World Blue
And Now I'm Seeing You On Sea Side Avenue
Oh! Thanks, Thanks, Thanks, Thanks Monica
Thanks, Thanks, Thanks - Oh, For August Sad Songs
The Wind Was Dry And It Was Sandy
I Spun My Wheels Towards Different Town
The End Is Always The Beginning, My Friend
So Say Goodbye To Me
Good Luck Everybody
Good Bye To Sea Side Avenue
Oh! Thanks, Thanks, Thanks, Thanks Monica

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
