    Story Behind the Song
    Written in the Fall of 2002, "Overdose" takes the confessions of a drug addict, his constant battle with himself and his possible justification for doing himself in because of his exhausting lifelong vigil to stay clean, and pushes along in a bluesy, soulful shuffle. The addict's cry for help comes across dark but prayerful as his admits he would rather be alive, and in pain than die and not return to those he loves.

    Lyrics
    Overdose

    I felt the sores every day, but the fright would come
    Then hunger took it all away, an eye for a song
    Well it won't leave me when I need to run
    I feel the pain every day and it's in my soul

    In the silence of the night I wonder why
    Why the shakes never stay and the waves go by
    I never did understand about my kind
    I turn against another plan and waste my mind

    Crawling home
    Is not the way I hope
    To kill my day with an overdose
    and never return to you, and never return to you

    Never cried in the night or wet my bed
    but tore at my face and smashed my head
    with blood on my fingers and on my hands
    inside of the cage and called for death

    Crawling home
    Is not the way I hope
    To kill my day with an overdose
    and never return to you, and never return
