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.
This ain´t no motherfuckin´ stick up just pick the stick up
And watch it roll real close rolling out my hand ´til
It cracks to that fucking dome living off the curb
That peels you from the curb I lick the rest off
Do you dig many in ´93 been making them fools ´bout
Round bumping around me you´ll want to run from
Underground at the best walk the live from
The verb on the beats I won´t see you fuckin´ head
Peers I flow
And mother she
Won´t drain herself
And won´t be caught in
All live in a big world
Began just because
My life is un-rise - wipe

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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.

god i love the deftones when chino just screams his fucking head off
@lelle Where did you find these?
I like your interpretation TheHappiestColour, and Disposition, his lyrics have made more sense in successive albums but are still cryptic as hell! I've read in some Deftones interviews that they really don't consider this a true representation of themselves because they have progressed and changed so much.
I for one will always like Adrenaline though! The whole album reminds me of growing up in some cracked neighborhood and it kind of reminds me of my youth. I think the lyrics kind of spill out on the album because he is just kind of spewing his past out without thinking.
Deftones is a band that I notice is very much straight from the heart. They don't calculate much in their songs and just belt it! I know Chino in an interview said when they collaborated with Maynard (MJK from Tool), they were all surprised at how MJK took a lot of time to create his pieces from a certain formula, while the Deftones just winged theirs! I love both bands (they are my favorite), but I definitely like Chino's methods. It seems so raw that way.
Although Tool is just so awesome in the music they create. True Geniuses.
Sounds to me like he's kicking someone's ass. Maybe I'm just high or something but think of it as being on "cloud 9" only the opposite. As being on cloud 9 your at the height of your happyness maybe his at the height of his anger and he put's the label "engine" on it. He's pissed and when your completely angry nothing makes sense. You act on emotion and lash out at everything. Like in a fight, you become disoreinted, even primal. That's such a great word. TOP LIP....BOTTOM LIP....CONSUME!!!!!!!!!!.
Engine #9 is the little engine that could.
A scream to humanity. Wake up! Start to see things how they are THIS IS AIN'T NO MOTHERFUCKIN STICK UP Run away from the underground and come to the surface and look around YOU'LL WANT TO RUN STRAIGHT FROM UNDERGROUND Don't get caught to lies or illusions. Don't think that the "motherfuckin' stick up" wont cracks the glass. Because it sure will IT CRACKS TO THAT FUCKING DOME Maybe the lyrical and the verb are the solution AT THE BEST WALK THE LIVE FROM THE VERB Music could be a way to escape to problems and it sure help to forget all those shits ON THE BEATS I WON'T SEE YOUR FUCKIN' HEAD Above all freedom to say whatever we want, that's why we are here to give our contribute to society LYRICAL DID!!!WIPE!!! Open your eyes and see what's right or wrong GET STRAIGHT QUICKLEY If you got to say fuck say it BIG INTO THE WIPE!!! Better then get quiet until the stick up gets into your head BEEN MAKING FOOLS 'BOUT ROUND, BUMPING ROUND ME
I loved the way Chino used to rock to this song and dance on stage....not saying that he doesn't anymore, but I miss the adrenaline days and ATF...when he used to dive at all his shows, but you still rock Chino....always
I think it's about his childhood, like sittin round on a curb till some stuck up punk tries to fuck with him, then he fucks em up.
...... I don't know what to say about these lyrics.... I must say they sound a little off... wipe? I dunno... but I do know that the Deftones are my favorite band of all, they have a really unique sound and they kick ass. This song is awesome, as a matter of fact I can't believe no one had anything to say about it... I have the video when they do it with Jon Davis, when Chino still had dreads.... too bad Jon has always thought he was god... and decided to "milk" his attention.. oh well. The Deftones rock my world.. rock on, farewell! FSQ
