[ Verse 1 ]
Brace your broken finger from all the times you shot me down.
Lying now won't cover your guilt-stained hands.
You stabbed me in the back, revealing your shaded lies.
This time, your canvas won't come clean.

[ Chorus ]
Broken frame, black-stained brush from all the
times you concealed your lies,
but still they seep through the lines.
Wake up! You paint a portrait of a lying heart.
[ Lyrics provided by www.mp3lyrics.org ]

[ Verse 2 ]
Tracing the technique to strengthen your ability.
Harsh strokes try to weaken my design.
Scared of failing, you've become what you despise.
This time, your canvas won't come clean.



Rocking the world for Jesus one stage at a time

This is the heart of ilia. In generation consumed by its media ilia is making a stand in purity, modesty, and faith... challenging guys and girls alike to rise to a whole new level. Desiring the factory line lifestyle to be broken, ilia encourages youth to pursue their calling whole heartedly, even if it means going to the other side of the world or just standing strong in the hallways of their high school.

Out of this passion ilia was formed in the fall of 2005. Pursing their callings, each individual band member found themselves at Visible school, a music and worship arts college, in Memphis, Tennessee. Not sure of what God had planned for them but willing to be used, the girls of ilia soon realized God had more instore for them than they had expected.

As time progressed and as the school year was coming to an end, ilia had accomplished more than they had ever thought was possible in months time. They had played shows in several different states and were invited to play GMA in Nashville, TN, all along being full time students in college. God was obviously blessing ilia to the extreme.

Now with the ability to devote their full attention to their calling and a few minor changes out of the way, ilia is moving full force. These girls are now fully ready to hit the road and are fully prepared for the trials that they will face. Knowing that God is on their side, they are ready to face anything and everything that is to come.

"Mixes melody and those crunchy metal tones that try to out-volume a Harley Davidson's muffler pipe." - HM Magazine

"With a slight commercial-metal sound, they add enough hardcore, and plenty of melody to make their sound widely enjoyable." - Uprise Magazine

"Their hard rock look flies in the face of what traditional Christians might find acceptable. Look at them but don’t judge them. Listen to them but don’t you dare pigeon-hole them. What comes across is their growing talent and spirit positive riffs and passionate vocals." - Unsigned The Magazine
