Vocalist Jake E. comments:
“‘Box With Spirits’ looks at the architecture of avoidance – the masks we wear, the truths we tuck away, and the small, deliberate choices that keep us from being seen. The title is a careful double entendre: spirits as both ghosts and distilled solace. We go to the liquor cabinet not only to drink, but to defer a reckoning, to soften questions we’re not ready to answer; the bottles become companions to the things that haunt us. And why put the heart in that same box? Because hiding it can feel like protection – a way to preserve what’s fragile, to shield love from further damage, to parcel pain into something manageable, or even to freeze a version of ourselves we’re not willing to lose. In that box, vulnerability is both locked away and preserved; it’s a refuge and a prison. The song interrogates that uneasy calculus and the tiny courage required to open the lid and let what’s inside be found.”
