Morphine - Empty Box Lyrics
Tore open a package it was an empty box
No meaning to me just an empty box
Sender was a woman
Sender was a woman
She said she's sending me everything that I I I never gave her before
Fill it up and send it back
So I send her back an empty box
A big mistake sent back an empty box
Half in the shadows half in the husky moonlight
And half insane just a sound
I crossed into a valley a valley so dark
That when I look back I can't see where I begin
I can't see my hands
I don't even know if my eyes are open
In the morning I was by the sea
Until I was too tired to swim anymore
And then I floated and tried to get my strength back
And then an empty box came floating by
An empty box and I crawled inside
Half in the shadows half in the husky moonlight
And half insane just a sound in the night
Half in the shadows half in the husky moonlight
And half insane just a sound

Morphine Empty Box Comments
2010 i lived in allston drunk to hell, my woman dead, my future gone, living out on a wire with my brother domo, then going home so drunk strung out smothered in the box and not fully knowing how dead i was really and now living paralyzed in the mind sober straight or not the memories frozen and unapproachable... and shit I don't even know if my eyes are open, the heart is broken and jaded too much now drunk or sober or angry or glum or doing what I'm supposed or not, don't reckon it matters, just shitting in the same river here but my brain stems are all burnt up
I need my fix
They just had their own thing, thank the good Lord I was able to see them live & they were truly amazing
Fill it up and send it back...
Я тащусь, это просто стиль
Серогорбая мышь. 2030 год, 15 октября, 21:00.
Приятно познакомиться.
Omg I've been found
Brilliant song! One of my favorite.
Sexy. As hell
Girl with one eye ? O.o
Miles de orgasmos auditivos con estás rolas
Aqui con un puro y un roncito añejo y esta cancion, q buena onda
There is no other band like Morphine on planet Earth!!!! This song exudes this!!!!!! RIP Mark Sandman...
My not friend franco used to puke in mu mam flowers while drunk becUseof the night
Que temazoo..! Grande morphine aun hoy son geniales.
Awesomeness
This is definitely their best song.
mmm its difficult , but it can definitely be
Well, gosh, guess i am a night shade potato as well since the birth of Morphine.. potato on my brother.. we had a sad, sad , sad, potato pass away on us. may he rest in foil forever.
RIP Mark Sandman......
Каеф
sanctify
I admire the level of dareness needed to dislike such a unique piece of music
Yeah it's humbling to flaunt my idiocy in public, just not in this case; L pretty love their entire catalogue; was so bummed when he died, was lucky to see them once in a small venue; perfect show, right, 'bout , 'round 22 years ago, or so. LOve you Mark Sandman.
My ears feel nicey
მიყვარხართ პატარებო
Morphine por siempre, Alto tema y alta letra, RIP Mark Sandmen.
HERMOSA CANCION Y HERMOSA BANDA
19 years ago today, was a very sad, sad day in the world of music. On stage in Italy we lost a legend. RIP Sandman.
Nirvana-Doors mix
Ertac Ulku
Definitely took some vibes from both
Саксофон кайфовый
Офигенная песня! А какой ритм, а саксофорн...мм
Илья Бабенко о да
why isn't like swimming and the night available on Spotify? anyone knows?
I assume it has something to do with those being the two albums they released on Dreamworks instead of Rykodisc. They’re in some sort of copyright limbo.
because Spotify sucks, must be obvious
Two years later, and streaming services still don't have it
Man, Mark Sandman was a genius! Terrific lyrics, terrific sound. God, why they don't make such music anymore?
He died in the 90's far as i know.
You just have to look for it. Members of the band went on to do other projects, (Twinemen, A.K.A.C.O.D., Bourbon Princess, etc,) and other newer artists have taken inspiration from Morphine. The music you want is out there, but you might have to hunt.
@NoBrakes23 AKACOD is SUPER good!!! Best offshoot of Morphine imho.
Mark died on stage....
Women: you make men feel this way, like we have nothing to offer that creates a future. You resent our strength, see us as Apes. All of you on a continuum...when we fail..who picks us up? You have the ceremony...everyone adores a strong woman....double standards...i was never beneficial of that.
Right on brother
That's why men shouldn't get married, just pump & dump. Women don't respect anyone or anything.
The sender was a woman
so 4 people out of a hundred thousand dont like this song...the war is on!
There's a 4% chance of being retarded apparently
The artistic child of Jim Morrison!!!!!
This song is pure 90s. It's the perfect anthem to that era. Good times they were.
No-one sounds like them in any time period. How does an anomaly define a decade? (walks up basement steps and shouts, "hey mom! what's an anomaly?")
I am in love with this song
Good good good!!
You're not alone..
Beautiful music and voice
We are playing black metal. But this... awesome. 0 dislikes! 0 dislikes!
Mora Prokaza I love death metal, but this.... avesome!!!!
Same here!!! Good stuff right here
Empty box para siempre.
To Emily - who told me what this song means. Sorry about the empty box.... not that she'll ever read this.
the lyrics say that a woman sent him an empty box with all the things he never gave her... she said to fill it up and send it back. He sent back the empty box ... probably a disappointing response. That fits well with my results.
The thing is, later: "Then an empty box came floating by, an empty box - and I crawled inside". So he probably never gave her himself.
She was an empty box that wanted him to fill her, but he couldn’t. But he climbed into another empty box when he needed help.
He gave her everything once before, the empty box was an invitation to reacquaint and be lovers again. He rejected it for whatever reason - more than likely fear - returning the box empty. It was the same empty box that then came floating by, she had discarded it and though he had intimations of it before that's when he realised the depth of his mistake, too late. He crawled inside and allowed the ocean to do what it will with him, he'd lost control and was now at the mercy of events.
@Booshank23 i like the way you think. Good one 👍
If this band was a potato, it'd be a very good potato
@Hermes Passer lol. Hadn't seen your comment before posting mine..
french fries with pepper
The best fucking potato around
Didn't come from Idaho.
Damn, that's deep
Nobody will ever be as suave as Mark Sandman was.
That voice.
I wish I was this band.
Excellent! *****
Half in the shadows half in the husky moonlight
And half insane just a sound
I crossed into a valley a valley so dark
That when I look back I can't see where I begin
This one says a lot. omg.
i wish i was this band
