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.
I was walking down the hall
Looking if something‘s empty I was looking at this wall
And I saw you and what you do
I was walking down the hall
Looking if someone’s free for me
I was looking at this wall
And I saw you and what you lose
Sicker than the rest
This is the best to save you
Would you do the rest
A pregnant-test that saves you?
Sicker than the rest
This is the best to save you
Would you do the rest
A pregnant-test that saves you?
I was walking down the hall
Looking if someone’s free for me
I was looking at this wall
And I saw you and what you lose
Sicker than the rest
This is the best to save you
Would you do the rest
A pregnant-test that saves you?
Sicker than the rest
This is the best to save you
Would you do the rest
A pregnant-test that saves you?
Looking if something‘s empty I was looking at this wall
And I saw you and what you do
I was walking down the hall
Looking if someone’s free for me
I was looking at this wall
And I saw you and what you lose
Sicker than the rest
This is the best to save you
Would you do the rest
A pregnant-test that saves you?
Sicker than the rest
This is the best to save you
Would you do the rest
A pregnant-test that saves you?
I was walking down the hall
Looking if someone’s free for me
I was looking at this wall
And I saw you and what you lose
Sicker than the rest
This is the best to save you
Would you do the rest
A pregnant-test that saves you?
Sicker than the rest
This is the best to save you
Would you do the rest
A pregnant-test that saves you?

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.
