    I sometimes wonder what Chris has been through in his life... with all this amazing standing up against bullying and for diversity and all the anger in his vocals. It's incredible

    Probably got bad mouthed when he was younger because he wears makeup. Its considered cool when rockers in bands dress up and no one cares but when your just an average Joe who's a metal fan who wears the makeup and such you probably get called names by people like Fag and such im sure he has dealt with this kind of stuff before.

    I freaking love this man and this band. I was bullied throughout middle and high school. And music was always my salvation when I had to go through it. I, as Chris said, went through it in silence, tried to show that it didn't hurt. When it was freaking painful. And when I discovered the MIW's music, I just heard the words that I needed so much. I literally found my home, my safe space. I adore MIW infinitely. Cause in this hell they are my paradise💔

    The painful thing for me was being bullied by both of my brothers as a kid. Both of them trying to be my dad. LOL, what a hoot. I've discovered this band and a few others within the span of 2-3 months that have the screaming in the music. This was something years ago I didn't think I would ever listen to. Never say never. When I listen to this type of music and what I am currently going through, this music actually keeps me calm. I can't explain it. Would be great to see them in concert.

    Chris the same "ability" you have comes from God. Because at some point you had to use the gift of focus to learn to scream. Just like ronnie...and every early 2000s metal band. I mean it is a small world after all. But you were born with love and something stripped that away. Well that same something used anger to justify taking it. And someone else used that something to justify the same actions against the person who did it to you but you act like youre very familiar with that something Chris. Let it go. You really dont know that something and can never know, its his game. You're only love. Thats it. I love you Chris.

    If Chris decides to finally make music for his creator the one that loves him more than anything. Would you people still follow him into light? Let me tell you something he's on the brink, because sometimes the most lost become the most found. It's not fairy tales, a war is going on for every one of your souls, and non of you can defeat the fire. It was never your place.
