After a sold-out and successful debut on Trisol, and a bunch of German club hits and numerous compilation appearances, and their recent chart-hitting EP "no time for "club" silence" (released in December 2004), the Berlin boys returned in 2005 with their brilliant combination of alluring charismatic male vocals, carrying synth melodies and dancefloor electro beats. Although a second album is often said to be difficult to write, the German trio took the time to come up with a perfectly balanced album benefiting from a sharp, modern and detailed production work. It’s not for nothing that many music journalists refer to "no time for silence" as SERO.OVERDOSE’s album of maturity! A subtle alliance of German synthetic pop with highly emotional vocals (both in English and German), edgy EBM sequences and dynamic rhythmics. A splendid mixture of moody pop songs and danceable future-pop tunes, with enough vocal and sonic diversity to please all fans of good electronic music.

The band appear to have been on hiatus since 2007's "heading for tomorrow". Their official website at http://www.sero-overdose.de is no longer active.

Sero.Overdose Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I try to do all thing's right
But always one thing goes wrong in my life
I can not hide if the feelings start to smother me
I'm not afraid but it makes no difference to me

I don't wanna live forever
I don't wanna see the end of time
I don't wanna hold you forever

I don't wanna hunt you til the end of the line

I'm walking near the brink of disaster
I can't control my feet cause everything goes faster

So here I am just were I stand
Singing my song, hoping one thing is wrong

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sero.Overdose's song "Ever" explore the struggles of trying to do everything right in life, but ultimately failing in some way or another. The singer cannot hide from the overwhelming emotions that come with these failures and acknowledges that they are walking near the brink of disaster. Despite this, they refuse to give up and continue singing their song, all the while hoping that something will go wrong because they cannot cope with the pressure of always having to be perfect.

The repetition of the phrase "I don't wanna" throughout the song highlights the singer's reluctance to live forever, see the end of time, hold onto someone forever or hunt someone until the end of the line. These sentiments suggest a fear of being stuck in one place forever and a desire for change and new experiences, even if that comes with its own set of risks and challenges. The lines "I can't control my feet cause everything goes faster" also hint at a loss of control over one's life, with events and circumstances moving too quickly.

Overall, the song explores the ups and downs of life, and how even when things seem to be going wrong, it's important to keep moving forward and singing your own song.

Line by Line Meaning

I try to do all things right
I attempt to be perfect in everything I do

But always one thing goes wrong in my life
Something always goes awry despite my efforts

I can not hide if the feelings start to smother me
I am unable to keep my emotions under wraps when they overwhelm me

I'm not afraid but it makes no difference to me
Although I'm unafraid, it doesn't change the situation

I don't wanna live forever
I don't want to exist perpetually

I don't wanna see the end of time
I would rather not witness the end of time

I don't wanna hold you forever
I don't want to have you with me indefinitely

I don't wanna hunt you til the end of the line
I don't want to pursue you relentlessly until the end

I'm walking near the brink of disaster
I am perilously close to catastrophe

I can't control my feet cause everything goes faster
I am unable to rein in my pace as everything speeds up

So here I am just where I stand
This is my current location
