The Overload Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Theyucheth 

Cover art for The Overload lyrics by Talking Heads

This song is hard to interpret, but it seems sort of like someone has been slowly driven insane. The second verse baffles me, but the third sounds sort of like a list of symptoms, or things that could trigger a change in someone. In some ways, the song reminds me of the book Breakfast of Champions.
