Lillium bulbs can only be saved by keeping them in soil, they dried quickly if kept in open air, better to leave them in soil.

Riaz shb, a plant bulb is called a "bulb" due to its round shape. Bulb is a swollen stem which is found underground, where plants store their food. Onions & garlic are examples. At the end of the bulb roots system starts. Just like onions bulbs can typically last a long time outside the soil as compared to an ordinary stem which will die in few days.
