The songs "Whole"〔 from the Flaw album ''Through The Eyes'' and "The Gift" from the Five.Bolt.Main album ''Venting'' are about the adoptive mother of Chris Volz. Chris Volz spoke about the Flaw song "Whole" and his adoptive mother saying “Everything in that song touches from sadness to anger to grief to blaming myself to confusion,” Volz said. “I just really wanted to go as deep into it as I possibly could and still be able to come back. She was the one who got me into music. She was an operatic singer, and for me to go wholly into music has kept a part of her alive inside of me.”〔 Chris Volz said that before he found out his adoptive mother adopted him, he thought she was his birth mom.〔 After Chris' adoptive mother committed suicide, Chris mourned his adoptive mother and started disrespecting authority figures such as his teachers and his father. Chris' father shipped him off to military school. Chris Volz ran away from school to hang out with his neighborhood friends. This got Chris Volz sent by his father to various juvenile detention centers. Chris Volz was sent by his father to a long-term drug rehab center after Chris was caught with a homemade bong. Chris' father is the one who caught him using a homemade bong.〔 Chris ran away from rehab and then was picked up by police and also was put in a juvenile detention center. Chris explained to the police what happened to him and explained what his father did. The court decided Chris wasn't a candidate for rehab and his dad was told by the police to take Chris Volz back. This made Chris' father bitter with him.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chris Volz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
