Seconds Lyrics by Krista Knight, Dave Malloy

Don’t Stop Me

2016

ELLIE:
I AM ALIVE
IN THIS SECOND
ZANDER:
I’VE LIVED FOR HALF A BILLION SECONDS
ELLIE:
I’LL LIVE FOR TWO BILLION SECONDS
ELLIE & ZANDER:
I’LL LIVE FOR THREE AND
A HALF BILLION SECONDS
ROYSHANNA:
BUT ONLY ONE SECOND
ROYSHANNA & NIKKI:
IS RIGHT NOW
ROGER & DAKOTA:
RIGHT NOW
NIKKI:
ONE SECOND
ROGER:
EVERYTHING THAT MATTERS NOW
ONE DAY WILL BE FORGOTTEN
DAKOTA:
EVERYTHING I FEEL WILL DISAPPEAR
ONE SECOND FROM NOW
ENSEMBLE:
AND I WILL REMEMBER
AND I WILL FORGET
JAYNIE:
AND I WILL CHOOSE THE SECONDS THAT DEFINE ME
SAMSON:
AND A FEW SECONDS LATER
ONE ENSEMBLE VOICE:
I’LL CHANGE MY MIND
CYRUS:
WHEN I DIED
THERE WASN’T LIGHT OR DARKNESS
MO:
IT WAS WEIRDER THAN ANYTHING
I THOUGHT WAS WEIRD BEFORE
JANNELLE:
WHEN I DIED
I DIDN’T REMEMBER ANY TEST SCORES
JANELLE & HARPER:
REJECTION OR EMBARRASSMENT
OR AWFUL AWKWARD SILENCE
MO:
I REMEMBERED THUNDERSTORMS
AND SQUIRRELS
HARPER:
BUBBLE TEA AND BOATS
ELLIE, ZANDER & 2 VOICES:
AND A PHONE CALL WITH MY MOTHER
AND CAMPING WITH MY FATHER
ROYSHANNA, NIKKI & 2 VOICES:
SNUGGLING WITH MY BOYFRIEND ON THE COUCH
TRACING THE HAIRS ON HIS ARM
ROGER:
AND WRESTLING WITH MY SISTER
DAKOTA:
AND TALKING TO MY TURTLE
HARPER, JANELLE & 2 VOICES:
AND LYING ON THE FLOOR AT 2AM
BULLSHITTING WITH MY FRIENDS
ALL GHOSTS:
MY LIFE WILL BE BETTER THAN THIS
MY LIFE WILL BE WORSE THAN THIS
BUT RIGHT NOW IT’S JUST RIGHT NOW
AND IN A SECOND IT WILL BE GONE
GRACE:
Just stand here with you
TYE:
Just stand here. With me
GRACE
And wait
TYE:
And wait
GRACE:
To see
(TYE and GRACE find stillness in the center.)
TYE:
ONE DAY
GRACE:
ONE DAY
TYE:
I WILL BE SOMEONE ELSE
GRACE:
I WILL BE SOMEONE ELSE
TYE:
I AM FRAGILE AND EPHEMERAL
SO LOVE ME WHILE I’M HERE
GRACE:
I AM FRAGILE AND EPHEMERAL
SO LOVE ME WHILE I’M HERE
GRACE & TYE:
ONE DAY
GHOSTS:
ONE DAY
GRACE & TYE:
I WILL FINALLY STOP RUNNING
GHOSTS:
I WILL FINALLY STOP RUNNING
ALL:
THERE WILL BE SUNLIGHT IN THE TREES
PLEASE DON’T STOP ME TIL I’M THERE
(THE END)
