Examining inner conflict:
Amos opens the door, sweat running down his forehead. The room is overstuffed with awards, prizes, gold and platinum records. Up and down he runs, nervously, his body shaking. “Nothing is there, never was, nothing remains, ever.” Same old fight, on and on, with the demon riding his thoughts. “Go for it, I don’t want this, I just can’t do this.” He flails around, tearing pictures off the wall, pulls out, strikes. Inspects his bleeding hand, runs his fingers through his hair, grabs the guitar, smiles and dashes out on the stage. Showtime!
