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 Their official website at http://www.sero-overdose.de is no longer active.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 ↴
All the tears you cry better forget
I've bin cruel such a long long time
Believe me I'll never feel fine
Why are the feelings coming up again?
Bring me pleasure please no pain
I want your body and your greed
Want to give you what you need
Give me your heart but don't hold me tight
I will be a stronger guy if I try
I loose myself I don't know why
Open your mind and realize
Look into my eyes they hypnotize
I see your joy at the end of the way
Black bird don't fly away
The lyrics of "Missing" by Sero.Overdose expresses a sense of regret and longing for a lost lover. The first two lines capture the emotional state of the singer: their mouth is dry from not being able to speak and their eyes are wet from the tears they have shed. The singer tells the lover to forget the tears they cried, implying that they may have caused them. The next two lines reveal how the singer has been cruel to the lover for a long time and that they will never feel fine about it. The singer feels guilty and wants to make amends with the lover.
The next set of lines express the singer's desire to be with the lover and give them what they need. The longing for physical intimacy and emotional connection is palpable in these lines. However, the singer does not want to be held too tightly, as they need to be free to grow and change. The final two lines express the singer's confusion and uncertainty about why they keep losing themselves. The final lines acknowledge that the lover is hesitant to trust the singer again, and they ask them to stay with them and not fly away.
In essence, the song is about a person who has acted cruelly towards their lover for a long time and now realizes their mistakes. They long for forgiveness and a restored relationship. The singer expresses both the physical and emotional desire for the lover but also acknowledges the need for freedom and space to grow.
