Lillix Lyrics

(Tasha-Ray Evin)
Started with a reply, deny
The thing that I wanna hear
The reason is why I do this
Trusting in something I fear
Why not tell me before, before
And I will stay
I need something much more, much more
I do what I do
What good is it anyway?
Can't you see you're blind
You're missing out this time
You didn't even try
No matter what I do
I can't get through to you
You're blind, so nevermind
I've heard this before
And I don't want to hear it again
I'll try to ignore
The beginning's gone, it's the end
Turn the world upside down, for you
And I'll do what I do
Even if I can't explain
I'm just stuck with the pain, oh yeah
And I'll do what I do
You won't listen anyway
Can't you see you're blind
You're missing out this time
You didn't even try
No matter what I do
I can't get through to you
You're blind
One day I'm gonna forget you
If you don't try to relate how I feel, oh oh
One day I'm gonna forget you
If you don't try to relate how I feel
Oh, I've heard this before
I don't wanna hear it again
Oh, you're blind
Oh, I try to ignore
The beginning's gone, it's the end
Can't you see you're blind
You're missing out this time
You didn't even try
No matter what I do
I can't get through to you
You're blind
Can't you see you're blind
You're missing out this time
You're gonna wish you tried
No matter what I do
I can't get through to you
You're blind
In "Blind," Lillix's lead singer, Tasha-Ray Evin, sings about the frustration of a one-sided relationship. She's been denied the words she wants to hear, and despite her efforts to make things work, she's met with unresponsiveness. The song opens with Evin pleading for honesty, asking why this person didn't tell her how they felt sooner. Something she fears is causing her to trust blindly, and she feels like she needs more than the emotionless response she's been given. She's done all she can and feels trapped in her own pain, stuck in a situation that appears to be causing more harm than anything else. Evin reinforces her point that this person is missing out on something special by not seeing what's in front of them in the chorus. She repeatedly tells them that they're blind and that they'll regret not trying harder before it's too late. Evin concludes the song by saying that she'll forget them someday if they don't try to relate to her feelings.
The lyrics of "Blind" are relatable and straightforward, touching on the emotions of unrequited love and frustration with a relationship that isn't going anywhere. Evin's powerful voice adds a layer of emotion to the song, with the repetition of "you're blind" becoming a powerful reminder of the person's ultimate downfall. Overall, the song is a plea for honesty and communication in a relationship and stands as a reminder that sometimes listening is just as crucial as speaking.
