Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?
Since I'm putting down
All of the true things around, but I like it
Handed down the crown
Given the jewels and the answers of May
The thought of being ousted
Comes and goes
Comes and goes
When I think about it, the wind blows
Hate it, hate it, hate it
Hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it
Run me out of town
Somewhere a move might intended a gown in
Pissed out all the vowels
Always the blues and a delicate smile
Missed all of the sideways
Gull and noun
Gull and noun
Chills and petty Band-Aids wrapped around
Hate it, hate it, hate it
Hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it
Good grief
Good grief
Since I'm putting down
All of the true things around, but I like it
Handed down the crown

Comes and goes

When I think about it the wind blows
Hate it, hate it, hate it
Hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it
All of the true things around, but I like it
Handed down the crown
Given the jewels and the answers of May
The thought of being ousted
Comes and goes
Comes and goes
When I think about it, the wind blows
Hate it, hate it, hate it
Hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it
Run me out of town

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.

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
