its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
It took a little time to get where I wanted
It took a little time to get free
It took a little time to be honest
It took a little time to be me
I took a little lover but then we parted
It took a little time to get over this
And from time to time I get heavy hearted
Thinking of how we used to kiss
Courage
Its a feeling like no other let me tell you yeah
Courage
In harmony with something other than your ego
Courage
The sweet belief of knowing nothing comes for free
Do you really want to know
About these lines on my face?
Well each and every one is testament to
All the mistakes I've had to make to find...
Courage
It's a feeling like no other let me tell you yeah
Courage
In harmony with something other than your ego
Courage
The sweet relief of knowing nothing comes for free
Courage
It's a feeling like no other let me tell you yeah
Courage
In harmony with something other than your ego
Courage
The sweet relief of knowing nothing comes for free
It took a little time to get free
It took a little time to be honest
It took a little time to be me
I took a little lover but then we parted
It took a little time to get over this
And from time to time I get heavy hearted
Thinking of how we used to kiss
Courage
Its a feeling like no other let me tell you yeah
Courage
In harmony with something other than your ego
Courage
The sweet belief of knowing nothing comes for free
Do you really want to know
About these lines on my face?
Well each and every one is testament to
All the mistakes I've had to make to find...
Courage
It's a feeling like no other let me tell you yeah
Courage
In harmony with something other than your ego
Courage
The sweet relief of knowing nothing comes for free
Courage
It's a feeling like no other let me tell you yeah
Courage
In harmony with something other than your ego
Courage
The sweet relief of knowing nothing comes for free

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

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.
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.
Holiday

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
I think this song is about the refreshing feeling of being out of a relationship that took everything out of you, but one whereby it was easier to stay in than leave.
Leaving such a situation, a going back to being free, takes courage even if it makes you extremely sad in the process.
