A new breed of weaponry

Fully automatic, precise schematic

Yes we aspire to a higher rate of fire

Superior technology

Oh, I sweep the arc of bullets to the left

Then I fire to the right

With my hand pressed down on the trigger

And the enemy in my sights

I spray a wall of lead to the left

And I fire to the right

The bodies drop in rows

Cut down like a scythe

Oh yes the roar of battle has its thrills

But never, never forget

How firepower kills

Solo- Carroll

If you thought we knew by now

How this is all a waste

In a government lab

The best, the brightest

Are locked in an arms race

Upon the modern battlefield

The war takes to the skies

And in the coming future days

Combat will be mechanized

Blast off at supersonic flight

Mach-10 like a guided drone

We’ll build a brighter future

With the weapons of tomorrow

Oh yes the prize of power has its thrills

But never never forget

How firepower kills

Solo-Becker

Oh yes the game of nations has its thrills

But never, never, never, never forget...

Firepower kills!

We will wipe away all your earthly pain and sorrow

Yes, we’ll build a brighter future with the weapons of tomorrow

We’ll build a brighter future with the weapons of tomorrow

We’ll build a brighter future with the weapons of tomorrow

We’ll build a brighter future with the weapons of tomorrow

And in a searing flash of white...

The future looks so bright

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.

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”
