Amy Lee’s Ex Won’t Strike Back Against “Sober”
Morgan says experience was “painful”
Seether frontman Shaun Morgan says even though he continues to be tormented by the Evanescence track “Call Me When You’re Sober,” he refuses to stoop to ex-girlfriend Amy Lee’s level.
Morgan recently told MTV, “People would say to me, ‘Yeah, man, I know what you’re going through,’ and I was like, ‘No, I don’t think you do.’ Your ex-girlfriend didn’t write a song about you, that millions of people have heard, saying you’re a bad guy. As soon as that happens, buddy, come up and tell me you know what I’m going through.
I was bummed out. I was really upset that she would say and do those things. In any relationship, I don’t think it’s right to say and do those things when people break up, and she obviously felt the need to go out there and make me sound like a complete a–hole. What can I do? I just refuse to lower myself to that level. But it was a painful thing and it got me down — people coming up to me on the street and referring to that song. But I didn’t feel the need to write back and be mean.”
