Painting Flowers Lyrics
I LOVE this. It has such an old school The Party Scene days sound to it! The more you listen to it, the more it grows on you. Can't get it out of my head x
I completely agree with you!! At first I wasn't sure but now I can't stop listening to it. And it does remind me of their older days, Alex's voice sounds more like the old stuff again =)

They didn't autotune Alex's voice at all in this song. This is his REAL voice. Not what you hear on Nothing Personal. And I actually think this is better than any song on Nothing Personal. This is the old, real All Time Low. The good ol' warped 2007 and Tourzilla days. This sound really reminds me of The Party Scene. Such a good song and if you really pay attention to the lyrics, it's there. Overall great song, well done.
I think this it's about someone who is so in love with their significant other and everythings perfect. And then one day he overhears the person talking and they're describing how they don't love the person back or maybe that they cheated on them, and the person isn't tryig to make a big deal out of it so they're being oh so casual about it and pretending it doesn't bother them when in fact it's killing them but they're still in love withthat person and can't help it. Which is what I'm assuming the meaning for "I'm still painting flowers for you".
I personally think that this is one of the greatest songs atl has ever written. Their Nothing Personal stuff is good but this is more like their old days which is what made me fall in love with the band. I'm crossing my fingers that their next album is like this but even if ts not atl will always be #1 to me.
I think that this song means that he loves someone, but the relationship isn’t working out and he can’t be himself around her for fear of losing her. Their relationship has just gotten to be too much and it isn’t going anywhere (hence the “…every day we’re running in circles”). Also, he wants to see her and have her tell him that everything is going to be alright, but either she can’t or she won’t. He is confused by their crazy relationship, and deep down he knows that he can’t continue loving this person. “I am still painting flowers for you” means that he is pretending to be someone he’s not for her by covering up his true self, and he’s weary of it (in this sense he is the “white rose,” their love is the “red paint” and the girl he loves is the “Red Queen/Queen of Hearts”. The Queen of Hearts would be more fitting because, with what we can get from the song, she has stolen his heart.) Also, when the song says “the dream isn’t done”, I interpret that to mean that his confusing relationship is like Alice’s Wonderland (a disturbing yet fascinating dreamworld that he feels he has to escape). This isn’t to say that Wonderland is a bad place; the only reason it’s like poison to him is that he is in love with the Red Queen rather than the Mad Hatter ïŠ.
i agree. it's like he's in love with someone who's bigger like.. the queen.

I'm wondering if when they wrote this song if it was intentionally made for Alice In Wonderland.
