Keeping Out of Direct Sunlight

We are the ones with the radiating eyes. We are the Ones who have a fire inside. We are the ones only we can recognize. We've been rejected (we've been rejected)- Suffered the ignorance, suffered the selfishness, been pushed so far down now comes our time to surface. Turn from the light, that made them all go blind. We've been protected (we've been protected) ALL ARISE TO WHAT WE BRING,OUTSTRETCHED HANDS, UNFOLDED WINGS. We've hurt ourselves, and I feel the sting of broken hearts and burning wings...

I'm not on either side. I personally like both Craig and Ronnie and it's stupid how people will be jumping back and forth between liking one and hating the other after just hearing what they said about the other. Ronnie is sitting here saying how they were talking shit about him and not getting over it and yet right afterwards he goes and calls them all names like a Tijuana hooker and such but valid he immediately afterwards says that that was immature so he is at least trying. I think they are both at fault. I have seen Escape the Fate since Craig joined and he didn't once mention Ronnie. But Ronnie did bring up a good point, every time Craig sings an Escape the Fate song written by Ronnie, he is being judged. And wouldn't you get irritated after awhile of constantly being compared to someone else? I don't think he went about it the right way by talking shit but Ronnie of all people should understand that people make mistakes. I think that going to prison has changed Ronnie and I'm very glad that he has become clean. I just hope that once he is released that he continues to stay clean and follows what he has learned. When I saw Escape the Fate before this all happened, the whole band was extremely rude to me and my friend. We went to their signing before they played and they didn't even look up at us or say anything to us. They were too busy talking to each other. Another time Ronnie passed right by me and I went to say hi and he just ignored me and then later he was trying to find his way out and I went to help him and again he simply ignored me. Valid, he might not have heard me but the signing alone sort of ruined their show for me. When I last saw Escape the Fate, I missed the signing so I can't judge that but seeing them play, I could see how different they were and they seemed to be a lot nicer. Craig seemed very appreciative that we came to see them and thanked us. It was a very different show from when I saw them with Ronnie. Also the "Team Radke" shirts kinda point that fans need to choose a side. You are either on "Team Radke" or "Team Mabbitt". Though I will admit that after hearing this interview, I have a lot more respect for Ronnie and I'm stoked for him to get out and release an album. But this all really boils down to Ronnie's word over Craig's. The only people that really know what really happened are them so honestly we have no merit to judge either of them because we are only getting secondhand knowledge. Well thats all just my opinion.
