Alice In Chains - Man In The Box Lyrics






I'm the man in the box
[Album version:] Buried in my shit
[Music video version:] Buried in my pit
Won't you come and save me, save me?

Feed my eyes. Can you sew them shut?
Jesus Christ, deny your maker
He who tries will be wasted
Feed my eyes. Now you've sewn them shut

I'm the dog who gets beat
[Album version:] Shove my nose in shit
[Music video version:] Shove my nose in spit
Won't you come and save me, save me?

Feed my eyes. Can you sew them shut?
Jesus Christ, deny your maker
He who tries will be wasted
Feed my eyes. Now you've sewn them shut

Feed my eyes. Can you sew them shut?
Jesus Christ, deny your maker
He who tries will be wasted
Feed my eyes. Now you've sewn them shut

    Used to see this on MTV all the time back in the good ole days but I was a young teen and the video scared me shitless so I would always turn to another channel. Fast forward to GTA (in my early 30s) where I would hear the it all of the time and grown to LOVE it. Such a classic, I wish I wasn't too chicken too enjoy it back in it's heydays. I DID listen to rock back in the days (but mainly hip hop) you know Metallica and all that but this video scared me. And Hole and NIN and alot of them. 💔☺

    When you realize the box is the Matrix we're living in

    s.... n....

    Everyone should watch the Matrix in 2019 and answer one question: who does the tech support? Because I work in IT and I get paid crazy money to fix stuff, and yet the Matrix somehow never needs to have a password reset or configuration file changed. Does it not run on Linux? Who sets up Kerberos? I mean, anyone who has every worked in IT has to wonder about these things.

  57. R.... H....

    This song has so much ENERGY in it. and it's an integral part of my history, My exploration of Grunge.

    R.... H....

    This is the right palce to start. Keep exploring.

  63. B.... J....

    I added a public comment that shows it was from a year ago and I just recently did it within the hour I wish I could have seen them back in the early 90s with Layne Staley that makes me sad how his life ended

  64. A.... V....

    When your mom blows out the speakers in her jeep blasting this song :D

    A.... V....

    thats a solid mom

  65. B.... D....

    I think the song is about how man is nothing without Jesus because in the son he said “feed my eyes “ and “can you sow them shut “meaning that he’s looking away from the lord which is why he says “Denie your maker “ which also explains why he’s in a pile of his own shit (original lyrics) and then there’s all the animals which is a metaphor meaning that without god were all just animals like the dog referenced in the song and as far as others man in the box “ I don’t entirely know but I feel like it has something to do with being trapped

  66. k.... g....

    My bandmates are talking that aic is same as Nirvana , what should i tell them ?🤦💁🙄

  67. D.... F....

    Man in the box from the man in the box.

    Feed my eyes, can you sew them shut?
    Jesus Christ, deny your maker
    He who tries, will be wasted
    Feed my eyes now you've sewn them shut

    I'm the dog who gets beat
    Shove my nose in shit
    Won't you come and save me
    Save me

    Feed my eyes, can you sew them shut?
    Jesus Christ, deny your maker
    He who tries, will be wasted
    Feed my eyes now you've sewn them shut

    Feed my eyes, can you sew them shut?
    Jesus Christ, deny your maker
    He who tries, will be wasted
