Alice in Chains is my favorite band, and they are the greatest band ever. I think Jerry Cantrell is an awesome guitarist and Layne was a great vocalist. They were all very talented.

The man in the box is quite hard to interpret, I found out its meaning. This is about censorship, with animal cruelty used as a metaphor. The "Man in the box" is like a veal calf trapped in confinement. And it goes onto talk about animal cruelty. Hope you enjoy this info.

Further more to my last comment, there has been another meaning for "The man in the box" that has come to light, people think that it is about christianity and that once peoples eyes are sewn shut, they are shut off from any other beliefs, and once you "feed my eyes" you are feeding them more information about christianity.

Hope this helps?

People...this is my way to look at it: Man in the Box is a religious song about how religion is closing our view of whats important and binding us away from freedom, hence the antagonic irony feed my eyes/ sew them shut. Furthermore it criticises the religious man for his inactivity towards his religious captivity "buried in my shit"
The whole song is metaphorical and ironic showing Layne's incredible racionalism and intellegence...

That said, I hope you agree and Alice in Chains rocks until the end of times and beyond Layne's grave as long as we remember them...
