When I look into these empty eyes I wanna cry like a baby 'cause the silence never made me wise just kept me spinning growing older just to criticize the younger versions of myself how many lies do we need to survive? thought I had it, thought I had it, thought I had it but it's slipping right through my fingers When I look into those sullen eyes like blurry diamonds 'cause the silence never made you wise just made you stranger, baby growing older just to criticize the younger versions of yourself how many lies do you need to survive? thought you had it, thought you had it, thought you had it but it's slipping right through your fingers Bubble-bee-sickness and pale blue eyes battling the darkness with scarlet mind lying under shades at the blue lagoon hiding your face under the moon keeping all the ducks and fantasize a way to lose When I look into these sullen eyes I wanna cry like a baby 'cause the silence never made you wise just made you stranger, baby growing older just to criticize the younger versions of yourself how many lies do you need to survive? thought you had it, thought you had it, thought you had it but it's slipping right through your fingers Bubble-bee-sickness and pale blue eyes battling the darkness with a scarlet mind lying under shades at the blue lagoon hiding your face under the moon keeping all the ducks and fantasize a way to lose And in the dark, there's a light that shines for you and I

Αδαμάντινα φτερά, για σένα είναι ο ήλιος που γελά, για σένα Γύρω σου ο κόσμος λίγο πια σου μοιάζει άδραξε μια νύχτα δες το ασήμι που βγαζει τρυγησε τα αμπελια σκαρφάλωσε τον φράκτη χρυσοκεντητη κοιλαδα δειξε μου στον χάρτη Αδαμάντινα φτερά, για σένα λαμπουν τα αστερια εκει ψηλά για σενα, για μένα Γύρω σου ο κόσμος λίγο πια σου μοιάζει άδραξε μια νύχτα δες το ασήμι που βγαζει τρύγησε τα αμπελια σκαρφάλωσε τον φράκτη χρυσοκεντητη κοιλαδα δειξε μου στον χάρτη Αδαμάντινα φτερά, για σένα λαμπουν τα αστερια εκει ψηλά για σενα Αλαβάστρινα φτερά, για σένα είναι ο ήλιος που γελά για σένα, για μένα για σένα, για σένα

Sally Jupinero had a long affair weaving and weaving her endless web but nothing is important for the great beyond she could lie around gazing at the tides One a day an angel set the sky ablaze "who really are you?" asked the lady in the haze "I really belong to the great beyond but I could die for you, much to your surprise" Then they came together once again exchanging and discussing the knowledge in their heads but something like a fuzzy kangaroo disrupts their meditation and the wisdom of the books Sally Jupinero had a little boat "a drop in the ocean, is my lonely soul" "don't be so sad" the angel said "we could fly around searching for the signs" Then they came together once again discussing and exchanging all the knowledge in their heads but something like a fuzzy kangaroo disrupts their meditation and the wisdom of the books Got to wake up in the morning taking to the streets all the funny people that you meet gonna walk in a row heading for the riverside If you see them like flying satellites around the sun and you really think you've had your fun hold on to the moment and save it for a rainy day Got to wake up in the morning taking to the streets all the pretty faces that you meet gonna walk in a row heading for the riverside If you see them like flying satellites around the sun and you really think you've had your fun hold on to the moment but save it for a rainy day

Enter the spiral of this crimson tide kill all the lights, time to get it right trying so hard to suppress your guilt drowning your mind with some booze and weed Guilty pleasures are the reason to live when everybody else wanna hear you scream wondering why nothing fills the void and all your friends, it's you who avoid Hey, thanks for coming hey, thanks for coming now you need the other hand Enter the spiral of this crimson tide kill all the lights, time to get it right trying so hard to suppress your guilt drowning your mind with some booze and weed Guilty pleasures are the reason to live when everybody else wanna hear you scream wondering why nothing fills the void and all your friends, it's you who avoid Hey, thanks for coming hey, thanks for cumming now you need the other hand now you feel a better man Hey, thanks for coming, thanks for coming thanks for cumming now you feel a better man now you need the other hand now you feel a changed man now you need another hand

Many times, you roll the dice with empty pockets and many times, you lie to me blaming your own if the price we have to pay is weighing down our shoulders will we choose to leave behind everything we love? Sing to me something primitive a song to boost our might turn it to something beautiful fill it with scarlet vibes 'cause the times hard as they seem soon will be forgotten Mary Anne, I saw you yesterday underneath my bed seems to me, we are both remnants of the past if the price we have to pay is weighing down our shoulders will we choose to leave behind everything we hate? Sing to me something primitive a song to boost our might turn it to something beautiful dress it with scarlet vibes 'cause the times as hard as they seem just remain wide open

about

Prins Obi is back, not alone this time. The self-titled album of Prins Obi & The Dream Warriors is in some sense the debut of the Athenian underground supergroup (with members of Baby Guru, The Voyage Limpid Sound, Chickn, Montero band, A Victim of Society) and at the same time the third complete solo work by Prins Obi (the successor to "The Age of Tourlou").

The Dream Warriors move to Diskex studio for a while and accompany Prins Obi on a journey from the outside to the inside, in the process of which they are partying, exorcising demons, recapturing romantic moments, loving (again) glam and hard rock, exonerating miserable situations, wandering around greek and foreign psychedelic valleys and delivering a postmodern and yet retro work of songs, live energy and finesse.

Out on limited edition black/clear vinyl (+cd version) and digital album via Inner Ear.
