On a road, some dirty country home…
You made me feel so welcome.
I knew you wanted more,
When you opened up your door.
In your eyes, I feasted on dragon's fires,
And at your empty table I...
I never once was hungry,
And it satisfied my soul.
Lilly you're a blind girl, but through you I see.
Even as a caged bird, you can brake me free.
Whoever you speak to wear reverent faces.
Wherever you pass through become holy places.
So Lilly, stay with me.
Out at sea, I felt you there with me.
No matter where you'd be, you know…
That I would follow through,
To the bitter end with you.
Sing with me, we'll erase the memory,
And I'll write you a melody for you…
…to drown your sorrows to,
If I'm not there with you.
Lilly I don't know how… but you know my ways.
Your hand is on my brow, and I feel your gaze.
Whoever you speak to wear reverent faces.
Wherever you pass through become holy places.
So Lilly, stay with me.
Lilly, stay with me.
Lilly, stay with me.
Lilly, stay with me.
Up in space, I dreamed I saw your face there.
Floating without a trace and I'm…
Alone and in my starship
In an orbit around you.
There you are, I stand in wonder and awe.
The pain of being so far away,
Can't hinder my plans,
‘Cause I'm coming down to land.
Lilly you're a blind girl, but through you I see.
Even as a caged bird, you can set me free.
Whoever you speak to wear reverent faces.
Wherever you pass through become holy places.
So Lilly, stay with me.
Lilly, stay with me.
Lilly, stay with me.
Lilly, stay with me.

Blake Russell & Free Hallas
Blake’s spooky indie-folk project he does with his wife Jesica. Features all the members of oblio on most of the songs, so it’s kind of like an oblio side-project, too! Very moody and vibey. oblio
Free Parking! is a punk band we love dearly... so much so that we produced and recorded their album "Fanfiction" for 'em. It's a killer album, & their other records are equally killer. Check it! oblio
Blake & Alex (of oblio) started this LA folk-rock band a few years before oblio was formed. They were very young, but there's a few gems. It's a good next-step for oblio super-fans who want more. oblio
supported by 4 fans who also own “Lilly (Electric Version)”
For me, I love the way the lyrics accompany the sound. The sort of juxtaposition of lyrics about mental health and loneliness with the typically upbeat instrumentals, some harsher than others. roxyzilla
