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.
Good morning to you, I hope you're feeling better baby
Thinking of me while you are far away
Counting the days until they set you free again
Writing this letter, hoping you're okay
Sent to the room you used to stay in every Sunday
The one that is warmed by sunshine everyday
And we'll get to know each other for a second time
And then you can tell me about your prison stay
Feels so good you're coming home soon
Its gonna be good to have you back again with me
Watching the laughter play around your eyes
Come up and fetch you, saved up for the train fare money
Kiss and make-up and it will be so nice
Feels so good you're coming home soon
Walking the way we used to walk
And it could be so nice
We're talking the way we used to talk
And it could be so nice
Its gonna be nice to have you back again with me
Watching the laughter play around your eyes
Come up and fetch you, saved up for the train fare money
Kiss and make-up and it will be so nice
Feels so good you're coming home soon
(Ah ah ah ah ah ah)
(Ah ah ah ah ah ah)
Feels so good you're coming home soon
(Ah ah ah)
(Ah ah ah ah)
Thinking of me while you are far away
Counting the days until they set you free again
Writing this letter, hoping you're okay
Sent to the room you used to stay in every Sunday
The one that is warmed by sunshine everyday
And we'll get to know each other for a second time
And then you can tell me about your prison stay
Feels so good you're coming home soon
Its gonna be good to have you back again with me
Watching the laughter play around your eyes
Come up and fetch you, saved up for the train fare money
Kiss and make-up and it will be so nice
Feels so good you're coming home soon
Walking the way we used to walk
And it could be so nice
We're talking the way we used to talk
And it could be so nice
Its gonna be nice to have you back again with me
Watching the laughter play around your eyes
Come up and fetch you, saved up for the train fare money
Kiss and make-up and it will be so nice
Feels so good you're coming home soon
(Ah ah ah ah ah ah)
(Ah ah ah ah ah ah)
Feels so good you're coming home soon
(Ah ah ah)
(Ah ah ah ah)

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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.

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
