The way this song speaks to me🥺🥺when I sing it I feel like I relate
Okay
Back in the States now
In a college town
I would walk around
But it's really coming down
Mesmerized by double lines
Two yellow tightropes
I'm making good time
I am never anywhere
Anywhere I go
When I'm home I'm never there
Long enough to know
Being in love is the same thing as being alone
Giving the sorrow some company
Nothing to say, stay on the phone
And I'm sorry I do not know what else you want from me
I am never anywhere
Anywhere I go
When I'm home I'm never there
Long enough to know
You say, "How are you", I say, "I don't know"
Let's dissolve the band, move to Idaho
Everyone's around and I hear you smiling
You say, "I love you", I say, "You too"
I am never anywhere
Anywhere I go
When I'm home I'm never there
Long enough to know
I am never anywhere
Anywhere I go
When I'm home I'm never there
Long enough
Back in the States now
In a college town
I would walk around
But it's really coming down
Mesmerized by double lines
Two yellow tightropes
I'm making good time
I am never anywhere
Anywhere I go
When I'm home I'm never there
Long enough to know
Being in love is the same thing as being alone
Giving the sorrow some company
Nothing to say, stay on the phone
And I'm sorry I do not know what else you want from me
I am never anywhere
Anywhere I go
When I'm home I'm never there
Long enough to know
You say, "How are you", I say, "I don't know"
Let's dissolve the band, move to Idaho
Everyone's around and I hear you smiling
You say, "I love you", I say, "You too"
I am never anywhere
Anywhere I go
When I'm home I'm never there
Long enough to know
I am never anywhere
Anywhere I go
When I'm home I'm never there
Long enough

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”

@[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.
