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 want you to know one thing
You ain't getting no engagement ring, yeah
So if you want to keep being with me
Oh, you've got to give me just a little, little more space
Stop chasing me around all over the place
And checking all the comments on damn Myspace
And acting like a fricking nut
Why can't you trust me baby?
Why can't you trust me baby?
So I did a little blow, get off my back
It's not like I'm smoking crack
Why can't you trust me baby?
I want to tell you just one thing more
Don't treat me like a dirty man whore, yeah
'Cause I can walk right out your Mum's front door
Oh, you better treat me with a little, a little respect
Before I go Chris Brown and punch you in the neck
Keep your insecurities at fucking check
Before I fuck all your ugly friends, yeah
Why can't you trust me baby?
Why can't you trust me baby?
I must have caught something from the toilet seat
You know that I would never cheat
Why can't you trust me baby?
Why can't you trust me baby?
If you think I'll mess around then get a grip
Or you're gonna get a big fat lip
I tell you everything I do
Is always gonna be for you
But you never hear a word
You treat me like a fricking turd
Just like a big, juicy turd, yeah, yeah
You better open up your eyes and shut your trap
I ain't putting up with anymore of your crap
Stop threatening the bitches on my Facebook page
Or I'm gonna rip your head off in a cocaine rage
Why you gotta check my prison history?
Baby, why can't we just let it be a mystery?
Besides, everybody knows it was you
That blew Justin Bieber at the petting zoo
Why can't you trust me baby?
Why can't you trust me baby?
I'm sing a little soft so you understand
I don't cheat like the rest of the band
Why can't you trust me baby?
Why can't you trust me baby?
Our love is fragile like a piece of glass
Don't make me drop your big, fat ass
Oh yeah yeah yeah
You ain't getting no engagement ring, yeah
So if you want to keep being with me
Oh, you've got to give me just a little, little more space
Stop chasing me around all over the place
And checking all the comments on damn Myspace
And acting like a fricking nut
Why can't you trust me baby?
Why can't you trust me baby?
So I did a little blow, get off my back
It's not like I'm smoking crack
Why can't you trust me baby?
I want to tell you just one thing more
Don't treat me like a dirty man whore, yeah
'Cause I can walk right out your Mum's front door
Oh, you better treat me with a little, a little respect
Before I go Chris Brown and punch you in the neck
Keep your insecurities at fucking check
Before I fuck all your ugly friends, yeah
Why can't you trust me baby?
Why can't you trust me baby?
I must have caught something from the toilet seat
You know that I would never cheat
Why can't you trust me baby?
Why can't you trust me baby?

Why can't you trust me baby?
Why can't you trust me baby?
Our love is fragile like a piece of glass
Don't make me drop your big, fat ass
Oh yeah yeah yeah

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
Van Halen
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.

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.
I laughed so hard at the quiet part: "I'm singing real soft so you'll understand I don't cheat like the rest of the band!"
So good. Great band.
