Ticket to the World

The third single off Ellis Wilder’s upcoming EP, Songs from October, “Lilac Wine” is a gritty folk ballad soaked in regret, memory, and the ache of what lingers. With raw vocals and stripped-back acoustic textures, Ellis traces the blurred edges of heartbreak and self-destruction — where the bottle speaks louder than closure, and love tastes like a lie you keep sipping anyway.

Scored with slow-burn guitar, dusty harmonics, and a bruised sense of confession, Lilac Wine doesn’t ask for pity — it just tells the truth.

“If love was truth, why’s it taste like goodbye?”

File under: gritty folk, heartache hymns, rustbelt ballads, after-midnight confessionals.

Lilac Wine

Stayed is an album about the kinds of love that don’t shout, but linger. Built on quiet moments, half-closed doors, and the echoes of words never said, each track traces the soft ache of connection—how it forms, how it frays, and how it somehow endures. These aren’t grand declarations. They’re confessions left on voice memos. Glances held too long. Goodbyes that felt like maybe.

With textures ranging from ambient folk to cinematic indie, Stayed drifts through longing, memory, and stillness. Some songs ask to be heard in headphones at midnight. Others belong to empty roads or rooms that still hold someone’s scent.

This is not an album about falling in love.
It’s an album about the people who never left you—
even when they did.

Somewhere You Stayed

Psycho

It feels like just yesterday the sun was near,
Summer raced past, bright and clear.
Golden days with laughter, the world alive,
Now the cold wind cuts and I barely survive.

I wasn’t ready for the season’s fall,
This northern silence, it drowns me all.

When I close my eyes, I see you there,
Crystal seas and sunlight in your hair.
But I’m trapped in shadows, frozen through,
Dreaming of a life meant for me and you.
Don’t let the fire fade, don’t let it die,
I’m terrified love will pass us by.

I remember spring when the birds all sang,
Sweet blue skies, how the daylight rang.
Now all I hear is the ruthless wind,
It chills my bones, it breaks me within.

Your pictures show me another place,
Like a movie scene, full of grace.

When I close my eyes, I see you there,
Crystal seas and sunlight in your hair.
But I’m trapped in shadows, frozen through,
Dreaming of a life meant for me and you.
Don’t let the fire fade, don’t let it die,
I’m terrified love will pass us by.

I’ve never belonged in this northern land,
Snow and silence, I can’t withstand.
I’m tired, I’m broken, I’m losing ground,
But in your warmth my soul is found.

When I close my eyes, I see you there,
Crystal seas and sunlight in your hair.
If we could escape, if we could be free,
Life as it’s meant, just you and me.
Don’t let the fire fade, don’t let it die,
I’m terrified love will pass us by.

So promise me, even through the pain,
You won’t forget me, you’ll call my name.

CRYSTAL SEAS, FROZEN SKIES

I'm a Virgo

This song doesn't offer easy answers. It offers the one thing that might break through the isolation: the profound, undeniable message that “you are not alone”.

I'm not leaving love, I'm just leaving you

Lyrics:

They know your name
And they know where you are
They look at you
And everything you do
They made the rules
And they run everything
They're playing with your mind
And they're telling you you're paranoid?

It's all a game
They love controlling you
You can't suceed
The odds all favour them
They look at you
With daggers in their eyes
And then they'll look at you
While they’re telling you you're paranoid?

(You're Paranoid)
(You're Paranoid)
(You're Paranoid)
(You're Paranoid)

How many times
Must I explain to you?
It's make believe
And nothing like it seems
Just look around
Do you believe it all?
You know it's all a dream
Any you're telling me I'm paranoid?

(Paranoia)
(Paranoia)
(Paranoia)
(Paranoia)
(You're Paranoid)
(You're Paranoid)
(You're Paranoid)
(You're Paranoid)

God so help me
(I have to escape you)
God please help me
(I have to escape you)
God release me
(I have to escape you)
I'm not paranoid!

(Paranoia)
(Paranoia)
(Paranoia)
(Paranoia)
