Empty Boxes

Tamar braxton

Empty boxes

Empty boxes is all I ever get

Just so grateful for the gifts

Should've known by shaking it

There was nothing there for me

But to my surprise

As the ribbon hit the floor

I just truly could not believe there was nothing underneath

Don't know what I was looking for

Empty boxes can be so pretty to the eye

Could be much be lighter than you think

It will knock you off your feet

To know it was all a lie

You never know

When it goes so you better fight

Let it go when you're wrong

So you better try

Then you learn

You can't feel everything

Empty boxes

They're all over the floor

I'll think of every little thing that you ever did to me

I'll back it up and cry no more

Please return to sender

Because I no longer live here anymore

You'll never find my new address

And I pray you'll do your best

To find a space for you to stay

You never know

When it goes so you better fight

Let it go when you're wrong

Then you better try

Then you learn that you can't feel everything

So keep your empty boxes

Your lying boxes

Your cheating on me boxes

I can't take no more

I promise you boxes

I'm in love with you boxes

So empty

So empty

Oh

Everything you said to me

You don't mean

So take your empty boxes

Help me

I don't want it back

Oh

Take your empty box
