Description:
So because the two writers and one producer of the song are both going by Lily I figured Liliana can be part of Blacklily. The unofficial name of this group is 'The Lily Fields'. This song was a labor of love with influences from the 80's that are very apparent.

Lyrics:
I can see the waves in the water
my fingers getting prunny
I've been here for too long
but it's calm here
nobody near
just sometime to be alone
i need some rest
to close my eyes
i've been tired for too long
and things look bad
everything's dark
i don't think i can survive
so many days
since the last time
someone hugged me while I cry
i must confess
my life is a mess (a big mistake)
but I need to carry on
and I don't think
I can believe
this is happening to me
I'm going crazy
loosing my mind
I need to scape somehow
no one can help
this is my mess
and I don't think I can get out
So please just turn the lights off
let me cry on my own
like I always do
and forget about this
and forget about things
and pretend I don't exist
and I'll be happy again
the water is cold
time to move on
have to get out of the tub
and while it drains
i'll watch the waves
with my tears going away
and I'll dry my eyes
and I'll fake a smile
and I'll just pretend
I'm happy again

Neat vibe &mdash 06/01/05 - 11:12:38 PM
Kind of a female Leonard Cohen thing going on. I kept
expecting some sort of instrumental break and think there
could be a spot for one but stillI really enjoyed it.

splish &mdash 06/02/05 - 10:14:37 AM
reminds me of lush, smashing pumpkins & a couple other
bands i can't seem to remember the names of. the cymbals
really stand out nicely & bring out the idea of the bathwater
to me. the lazy slowness of the vocals puts a nice coating
over everything. very cool tune, hope you 2 (or 3) do more
like this

Cool vibe and vocals. That's for the upload!

hypnotic &mdash 06/04/05 - 10:53:11 PM
The musical content, hypnotic in its repetition, the angsty
lyrics delivered in an emotional, yet deadpan way -- yes,
you sound tired and frustrated! -- which is very
expressive, it all WORKS well in this song.

Very cool atmosphere, here. This song would be perfect
playing in an internet cafe. (hint to cjhoose?)

Very dreamy feel &mdash 06/04/05 - 11:07:16 PM
I can hear the 80s influences. I like the "close" sound of
the vocals. Really adds to the over all feel. Very cool tune.

Very Nice! &mdash 06/07/05 - 11:00:31 PM
Excellent Sound. I really like that laid back (sort of Smashing Pumkins sound )you produced. I liked the lyrics also. They work really well with the tone of the song.
