End scene

Special Lighting needed for both scenes please
There are 2 scenes to this one. I suggest the lights be dimmed on the 2nd scene while the first is acted, and vice versa.

Scene 1 - Manager of a business sitting behind a desk, about to tell his employee - John, how well he did in the interview for a promotion. The manager is someone who cares more about running the business rather than his employees.
Scene 2 - John’s wife - Jane, is at home sitting on the couch reading a magazine. He walks in still sad, but not wanting to say anything about the job straight away. He sits down on the couch.

1st lines of lyrics:

So this is how it feels
At the rock bottom of despair
When the house that I built
Comes crushing down
And this is how it feels
When I know the man that I say I am
Is not the man that I am
When no one’s around

Last lines of lyrics (how song ends)

I refuse to be
Locked up in here
Like a prison cell
All I ever get is a meal and four walls
I used to be
Just fine in here
But not anymore
Gonna break through these steel bars

Is Christians who acknowledge Jesus with their lips
Then walk out the door and deny him by their lifestyle.
That is what an unbelieving world simply finds unbelievable.]

Last lines of lyrics (how song ends)

You never turn in the heat of it all
What if I stumble, what if I fall?
