My Best Friend
Let the flags all stop their waving,
Let the traffic lights turn red.
I was informed this morning,
That my best friend was dead.
Let all the world be still,
Stop the sands of time.
Stop the presses, stop the show,
This man was a friend of mine.
Let there be no laughter,
Not even to hide a tear.
You have taken my greatest treasure,
and decided to leave me here.
Life now has no meaning,
there's no project I want to start.
Stop all the things that I once loved,
then stop my beating heart.
