“It’s always the beginning or the end, it just depends on you perception of time. But what if time wasn’t linear?”
This cannot be called an “Album”. Do Albums even exist anymore? It is just a collection of Songs recorded in 2020 during the unusual circumstances.
Available on all digital music distribution.
Some stories behind every song:
Never too late
Inspired and driven by change, by trying again, by forever growing and searching for that dawn across the Milky Way.
Hope it makes you feel less gloomy.
Recorded at Between the Ocean and the sky with the participation of Joe van der Linden on Bass and Electric guitar.
Never too late
Music and lyrics by Ced
Recorded at “between the ocean and the sky”: Acoustic guitars, electric rythm, drum programming, vocals by Ced
Recorded at Joe’s home studio: Bass, electric guitar and slide: Joe van der Linden
It’s never too late
To reinvent your dreams
Even if time has played, the card you thought you had.
Learn to embrace,
Learn to forget the scars you wear
Even if fear still feeds the shadows in your heart
Second chance you need to separate
What’s real from fake ‘cause fake will bring you down
You’ve got to learn to teach to face each day
Like a new dawn splashed across the Milky Way
Remember the time
When you believed all that they said
But then you chose the road that took you far away
Second chance you need to separate
What’s real from fake ‘cause fake will bring you down
You’ve got to teach to learn to face each day
Like a new dawn splashed across the Milky Way
Don’t be afraid,
The past can’t touch you now
And we’ll protect this space from the storm and surge somehow
And if the boat, should suffer in the storm
Know that we surfed the wave
Of universal truth
Where no ones to lose
Where two and two can also add to nine

Info junkie man, save yourself while you can
Don’t become Junk info man
Info junkie girl, save yourself from this world
Don’t become junk info girl
The world has gone crazy
There is no right from wrong
There is no truth from fake
And no time for this song
The media has no scruples
Plays you like a pawn
When everything falls apart,
You’ll be left on your own
Info junkie man, save yourself while you can
Don’t become Junk info man
Info junkie girl, save yourself from this world
Don’t become junk info girl
You live for the drama
Social media disease
Pharmaceuticals smile
With the pills that you need
We listen to leaders
With their own evil plan
Spreading fear in your soul
Through the palm of your hand
Info junkie man, save yourself while you can
Don’t become Junk info man
Info junkie girl, save yourself from this world
Don’t become junk info girl
Does it help if you worry about all that they said
And no one is accountable for the panic they spread
It’s 24 /7 breaking news alert
A reality that just becomes too absurd
And fear is the weapon on both sides of the blade
It’s about your consumption
How much money they made
Info junkie man, save yourself while you can
Don’t become Junk info man
Info junkie girl, save yourself from this world
Don’t become junk info girl
Into the fire
I have been sporadically spending time in the studio during this restricted movement period. I think this song started off positive, but it might have gotten lost.
Into the fire
Lyrics music and all instruments by Ced
Time is a concept
To measure things that cannot be measured
Space is the distance
You keep between the courage you require to throw yourself once more
Into the fire
If love is the answer
Chorus:
When you feel you’ll come undone
And you feel your mind is Numb
Remember to believe in yourself like you believe in the sun
When you long for what you crave
All the love that you once gave
Remember to believe in yourself before you give it away
You’re given the key
To elevate emancipate your future
Hold on to the treasure
You found sleeping in the corner of your mind before you took the leap
Into the fire
If hate is the cancer
Chorus
A world filled with vision
Of dreams and screams
Of hope and thoughts of wisdom that live under the ashes
Of the everlasting fire
That must burn with your desire
Chorus
