Jay Parade - Tuning: Eb Music: Kevin T. Shedaker Lyrics: Kevin T. Shedaker Verse 1 A different light comes - To shine on me Drag me out of - This misery I've opened both my eyes Spent countless years - Living blind Chorus Save me now - Shine Light on me Help me out - Let me be free I paid my dues - So let me be [Open the doors - Light shines on me] x 2 Verse 2 Lived many ways - This life for me Tried different things - Not one working I need some guidance A spirit to steer my soul Chorus Save me now - Shine Light on me Help me out - Let me be free I paid my dues - So let me be [Open the doors - Light shines on me] x 2

The Spirit's Hum - Tuning Eb Music: Kevin T. Shedaker Lyrics: Kevin T. Shedaker I've opened my eyes to see, the mistakes I've made in the past The changes I've made to myself will become the reasons why I pass
Don't let me be - don't let me be that mistake Let me be all that is great in this State of awareness
I swear - I'll repair this Before I cry Before I wither & die - all alone With the crows, feasting on my sorrows and misery I swear this is not a vision, of the future Forgive me My past was a scar A dark art written on the canvas I call my arms You came to me, washed me clean Helped me see that life is worth living You are my savior of this dark earth Though not through spiritual rebirth, but through renewal of self worth
So now when I die, bury me face down towards the ground So I can see where the origin of the sound comes from The shaking beneath my feet The turning of the earth? The spirit's hum I love you - I love you So now when I die, bury me face down towards the ground So I can see where the origin of the sound comes from The shaking beneath my feet The turning of the earth? The spirit's hum I love you - I love you I love you

Nothing (Is Wrong?) - Tuning E Music: Kevin T. Shedaker Lyrics: Kevin T. Shedaker Chorus Nothing's the same No one to blame Except yourself I am ashamed Now, of the way We lived this hell Verse 1 There is nothing beside me Nothing that's left to hold Feelings fighting inside of me Afraid for which will gain control Will it be sadness and misery Or perhaps this bloodthirsty rage? There is nothing beside me Nothing that's left to hold Chorus Nothing's the same No one to blame Except yourself I am ashamed Now, of the way We lived this hell Verse 2 Share with me your infinite wisdom Flow into me all that you have been Shower me with age and maturity See I'm the same as I've always been Will it be sadness and misery To dictate my life for me Will it be this bloodthirsty rage That's built up inside of me Chorus Nothing's the same No one to blame Except yourself I am ashamed Now, of the way We lived this hell Bridge You say that nothing is wrong (My heart is breaking) You must have been gone so long (With the words your saying) Chorus x2 (fade out)

Love Songs (For A Stranger) - Tuning Eb Music: Kevin T. Shedaker Lyrics: Kevin T. Shedaker Verse 1 Writing love songs for a stranger Seemed to be alright Writing love songs for a stranger Just to pass the time I fear my heart is in danger One more time I fear now that this stranger Has grown tired of my lines Chorus Too much, Too soon Passing by a place in June Too fast to fall Seems my soul has lost it all Verse 2 Once you were a danger Now you make me shine Writing love songs for a stranger Seems alright This feeling seems to linger For such a long time Wish I were a director So I could cut my own lines Chorus Too much, Too soon Passing by a place in June Too fast to fall Seems my soul has lost it all Bridge Don't get your hopes up, or you might get broken down Take that ring of hurt & wear it as your crown High expectations only make it worse Perhaps I'd know the next line if I rehearsed Verse 1 Writing love songs for a stranger Seemed to be alright Writing love songs for a stranger Just to pass the time I fear my heart is in danger One more time I fear now that this stranger Has grown tired of my lines Chorus Outro Writing love songs for a stranger x 2

Forever - Tuning E Music: Kevin T. Shedaker Lyrics: Kevin T. Shedaker Come with me, journey to the stars in the sky Let the clouds bathe us, travel to the heavens high above Our love can be (forever and more) Let me take you there (let me be your shining star) Day by day I walk this earth, just waiting for something The night comes just in time, to carry me on swift wings Into your mind, into your arms Keep me in your heart today Hold me close and cherish the words I say We all die one day, what will you do on my day? Our love can be (forever and more) Let me take you there (let me be your shining star) Keep me in your heart today Hold me close and cherish the words I say We all die one day, what will you do on my day? Struggling to find the words, how can I say you are my world? Our love can be (forever and more) Let me take you there (let me be your shining star) Keep me in your heart today Hold me close and cherish the words I say We all die one day, what will you do on my day? Our love can be (forever and more) Let me take you there (let me be your shining star)

Windows - Tuning Eb Music: Kevin T. Shedaker Lyrics: Kevin T. Shedaker Verse 1 You see a simple man One of great mistakes I see a little man Fighting to remain Kicking his frail legs To keep himself afloat He's stuck deep in the dregs They're gripping at his throat Chorus See into the windows of my soul See that I am the one with self control See into my heart, witness I am blind Yet still with all of this, you swear that I am lying Verse 2 I have opened The door to my soul And you see inside Something you don't know I have longed to be Finding a reason to be I was looking to find Something in my mind Chorus See into the windows of my soul See that I am the one with self control See into my heart, witness I am blind Yet still with all of this, you swear that I am lying

No Longer Silenced - Tuning E Music: Kevin T. Shedaker Lyrics: Kevin T. Shedaker Chorus We cannot die, and we won't say goodbye We cannot die, and we'll try to say goodbye Verse 1 All of these people forced to be Impoverished, work slavery Nothing about this life is free So we cry, and no one sees Empty words come from our mouths We hear the shots, ringing out Every night there's violence on TV Yet we are told, that we are free Chorus We cannot die, and we won't say goodbye We cannot die, and we'll try to say goodbye We cannot die, and we won't say goodbye We cannot die, and we'll try to say goodbye Verse 2 Working almost 5 different jobs To makes ends meet, we feel so robbed Robbed of our time and creativity Yet we are told, that we are free Life is our god given right So for that, why don't we fight? American, land of the free Home of the brave, in slavery Chorus We cannot die, and we won't say goodbye We cannot die, and we'll try to say goodbye Bridge In this life we are taught to be afraid Of the sun, the light, the truth of the way We are corralled into this rusty cage Fed on scraps, minimum wage Rage builds up inside of me Why do they lie and say we're free? Chorus We cannot die, and we won't say goodbye We cannot die, and we'll try to say goodbye We cannot die, and we won't say goodbye We cannot die, and we'll try to say goodbye

Mood Swings 03:19

Mood Swings - Tuning Eb Music: Kevin T. Shedaker Lyrics: Kevin T. Shedaker I don't know what to say to you, I never know what to say.. You make me breathless when I think of you. You make me sad when I'm far away from you. I swear one day, I'd love to spend, my life by your side and never argue again. But I feel so alone today, so let down. I feel torn away from everything I've found. You know these mood swings are difficult to handle when you're by yourself/ I have no anchor to reality, I don't have you close to me-not close to me. Its a shame you're not here, you know I'd love it dear but I know its okay. You have bigger things to attend to, so I'll just deal the best that I can on my own. Here alone.. without you.. its tough. So tough. I never thought I'd go this long without your smiling face close to me. These things have changed, the silence grows, we stay the same. Un-arranged I feel these tears coming now, I need to feel..

Shedaker There's always been so much I wanted to tell you I could never find the strength to open up & now it seems as though I finally have that chance & I can hold you in my arms and dance Now that you're mine I feel There's so much for us to do In this life we will see so many things Do many things I won't let you down this time I will try To be the best I can for you Do anything that I can for you & I hope to never lose you again because I felt so bad All alone so many years I fought & searched for you Wanted nothing more than to see you In my arms
