RUNNING OUT OF TIME

By Stephanie Rogers © 2020 Story Jam Songs

I’m alone in a world I cannot fight
Desperation rips me up inside
Does anybody care if I’m alive

Do you believe I deserve to die?
My struggle lives beyond the words you deny
God put here and gave me life

I know my time is short and
My name means nothing to you
I don’t want to leave this world behind
Every breath I take lives on
In the name of justice
I’m running out…I’m running out of time

I can’t live with illness anymore
Our legacy is greater than all we endure
Brothers sisters keep hope in store

I know my time is short and
My name means nothing to you
Don’t want to leave this world behind
Every breath I take lives on
In the name of justice
I’m running out…I’m running out of time

Don’t need forever
Just a little bit longer…

No Celebrity by Stephanie Rogers

When I look around the room
Everybody else looks like me
And all I see

Is that I am still unique
Cause I don’t really give a shit About appearing

But who am I if I'm not who I think I am...

Hey I am a normal human
Hey I read the news I’m common
Hey I get my neighbor’s wifi for free
I’m no celebrity

Wouldn’t it be fun
To star with Denzel Washington
Or sail the sea with Pitt and Clooney
But I can have my fun
Being a librarian
Or serving tea at Jerry’s deli

But who am I if I’m not who I think I am…

Hey I am a normal human
I’ve got no fans in Saigon
I haven't lost my sanity
Hey I never drink Remy Martin
Hey there is no film I’ve starred in
I’ll never be thin like Twiggy
I’m no celebrity…

Hey I don’t Tic Toc or Instagram
Don't have a weekly cocaine man
I never carry a puppy
Hey I ride the bus and pay rent
Hey I squeeze a dollars from cents
Hey I’ve been to Niles and Kankakee

I’m no celebrity

DEAD OR ALIVE by Stephanie Rogers

Are you dead or alive
Is your heart still yearning
I've stayed behind
To clean up the mess they found
All the sirens that blew
They came looking for you
As they ripped the babe out of your hands
Now you're there in the queue
After all you've all you've been through
I'm afraid to see how it all ends

Do you remember a time
Free of cracks and bruises
Do they let in the light
Or are they closing down
On your eyes as they cry
While they're fighting for life
Though they're hardened and sunken and blind
Take your place in the cue
Someone's waiting for you
They don't know that you still have to die

Strength will crumble
No one will tell you why
I've too been to battle
And I, too, have sunken eyes

Are you dead or alive
Does your heart still yearn

LILLY'S LESSONS by Xoe Wise

I have learned the lessons from Lilly
I have learned how to stay strong in my car
When I'm driving south on Lake Shore and I think about her
I hear her voice ringing in my heart

And if all of you start crying right now during this song
Don't do that...no pity parties, OK?
That's from Roderick's mom

This is Lilly's lessons...

She says turn that frown upside down right now
And go get your mama her gala gown
You gotta stay strong against the harm
Make sure your dress shows little bit of arm
And show some titty...you gotta show some titty

You can always change from the food industry at 40
To healthcare? You bet!
And when life makes you mad
Just blow on something...a clarinet!

Lilly's lessons

Do say "Gay gay gay,"
Do what you want with your boday
And show a little cleave even on a Monday
When they said three to five years
She said seven
Just give me my gumbo even if you have to USPS it!

Lilly's lessons...

Take me on a trip
Just pack my wheelchair
Change your careerWe need you back in healthcare

MS. VALENTINE (by Liam Davis)

Dear Mrs. T
Welcome to Lake Forest, Illinois
It's such a joy (she said)
To have Erica in class with me
I really must say how much
I enjoy her company, but...

Dear Mrs. T
Even though I understand
Your husband's on TV
Call it intuition a condition
Is arousing my suspicion
As a trained arithmetician
Well it simply does not compute

She's guessing, she's probably guessing...
Maybe she's cheating, cheating...

F Ms. Valentine x4

Dear Mrs. T
I understand you didn't make it
All the way to college like me
But really it is simply public knowledge you see
A child from the South Side
The outside is automatically unqualified
She can't hang
It's the order of the universe
It's ying yang
And so although the way
She comes at every problem
Makes it easier to solve them
I simple have no choice

In remedial...math

She's guessing, she's probably guessing...
Maybe she's cheating, cheating...

F Ms. Valentine x4...

MIRACLE

Everybody says run before the trouble comes
On the road in the dark
Everybody lays low through the afterglow
To avoid any harm

It would take a miracle to save you
Bounty of angels or some light shining through

Must be a glow in the deepest dark
Heat in the coldest heart
Leading the way for a fallen soul
When we have lost all hope

It would take a miracle to save you
Bounty of angels or some light shining through

Everybody says run
When the trouble comes
On the road in the dark
Everybody lays low
Through the afterglow
To avoid harm

It would take a miracle to save you
Bounty of angels or some light shining through
