"Overdose (Live)" lyrics - THE USED
[Spoken:]
So I wrote this song about a little person
Her name is Cleopatra Rose,she's my daughter
And becoming a father can change you in ways you never imagined
You hear it, you hear it but when you, when I saw her face for the first time
I think I finally felt what love really is and it's like drugs
This song's dedicated to you little Cleo
I will always always be there for you, this song's called overdose
Doesn't start all at once or come slow as can be
It's not about you and me and I don't mind that it costs
At least it's not make belief you can get it free
[Chorus:]
But to get love you have got to give love
Somehow I've got your love wasn't meant to be
Your love is my drug
I've overdose I'm right where I'm supposed to be yeah
Your love is made of plenty of overdose and overdose
And just like in the books the voices spoken to me
Words as clear as can be
They say no one can take it away
Nothing can come in between can't just stop it's real
[Chorus:]
But to get love you have got to give love
Somehow I've got your love wasn't meant to be
Your love is my drug
I've overdose I'm right where I'm supposed to be yeah
Your love is made of plenty of overdose and overdose
And in the end I found Cleo don't know why she would choose me
And in the end I found Cleo [?]
Don't beat the magical alone could be wrong better wait and see
Get caught up when you singing along
Overdosing come naturally this much I mean to [?]
I get fucked up when you sing along
Overdosing come naturally
Your love is my drug
I've overdose I'm right where I'm supposed to be yeah
Your love is made of plenty of overdose and overdose
Don't beat the magical alone could be wrong better wait and see
Get caught up when you singing along
Overdosing come naturally this much I mean to [?]
I get fucked up when you sing along Overdosing come naturally
[Outro:]
And in the end I found Cleo
And in the end I found my love Cleo
She's my love Cleo
She's my love Cleo
She's my love Cleo Rose
[Spoken:]
Oh my God I'm having so much fun
But honestly this song is about so many more things
Than I could ever just talk about in one night
And, it's really crazy how after all these years I mean I wrote these lyrics
In 2002 no no 2001 or even 2000 I think and after 15 years
The meanings become more than what they were
And these songs and the words become so much more special
Than I ever thought they could become (woo)
So (woo) get up stand up stand up for yo right
If anybody here feels like that then smile and do the happy dance
