Stop, world.
Stop.
One of your best is gone.
Do you know him?
I did
And I want the world to stop.

Eddie, do you hear me?
I'm crying, Eddie.
I'm walking in the December cold
Far away from home
Crying.
It's raining, Eddie.
Nature's crying too
Or maybe God.

Thank you, Eddie.
Thank you for smiling
Thank you for fighting
Thank you for showing me strength I will never have
Thank you for living, Eddie.

Stop, world.
Stop.
Stop your bulldozers,
Stop your cars,
Stop talking about nothing.
Stop and remember with me.
Help me find the strength
To move on.
