That moment when you realize this song is about trying to keep someone you lost and start crying... You heard what they said, but you still keep hoping and 'painting flowers'... Hoping you can get them back, or do something different...
-i dont think theres a music video -movie only soundtrack and like many in the album aside from the main Alice by Avril, it doesnt seem to be promoted much or like someone said, played live.
for some reason when he says "I am still painting flowers for you" I imagine Alex, Jack, Rian, and Zack painting all the white roses red like in the movie and they ask each other "hey can you pass me the paint bucket?" and then they get into a huge paint war...
THIS SONG MAKES ME FEEL SO NOSTALGIC LIKE SERIOUSLY It reminds me of hazy memories of the past, in which only a few are clear it reminds me of being in the car and listening to the radio and looking out of the window, as we drive through almost farm like land, feeling peaceful as the land goes by in a blurr When you're in the car, or hanging out with friends, and you realize that soon that moment will only fade into a memory, if you even still remember it idk It just reminds me of those things It also reminds me of a song I feel like I've heard before like a few years ago on the radio... Yeah I'm sorry for this comment but I JUST HAD TO SHARE HOW NOSTALGIC I FEEL
I strongly feel this too, it's like I was in a peaceful time in my childhood when i used to play videogames all day long, play soccer with my friends, and simply going outside, or in a travel with my families. It's like all of that was magic, and im grateful that it happened.
I FOUND THIS SONG THREE YEARS AGO AND IT'S BRINGING BACK MEMORIES. PS: for those of you who don't know, this song was written for Tim Burton's film "Alice in Wonderland". This song is on the album Almost Alice and it features songs written for the movie but didn't quite make it.
Dude okay, damn I just wished this song made it on some sort of album that they released because honestly it's beautiful. Nothing I love more than hearing songs by my favorite band that isn't on one of their CDs and I find it by chance. It's beautiful.
I love this song so much. Seriously, it's such a beautiful song and it is definitely my favorite song by All Time Low. It combined two of my favorite things, music, and Alice in Wonderland. I am very tempted to sing this song for the talent show at my school but i have developed stage fright since the last time i performed anything which was probably fourth or fifth grade and I'm in eighth grade now. If i just lay on my bed, close my eyes, and play this song, i can see myself in the forest from Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland. I usually wouldn't write a comment like this about a song but lately I've been a bit sad and this song made everything seem so much better. C:
Laurel I do that too when public speaking lol. I just pretend I am somebody else and if they mess up it's okay because it's not me its them. Yeah doesn't make much sense but it helps lol.
Oh god its been a long time since I bought and heard this album and thanks to it I discovered my love for rock bands like ATL, All American rejects, Tokio Hotel, etc . No matter how old this album may be I always carry it around with me I just hope the album also features some great punk band's.
This is one of the best songs I've ever heard. One of the best bands as well. All Time Low is so amazing. Plus, they introduced me to 5sos. So that's good. Lol.
After losing two friends to suicide this year, I find myself playing this song over and over. Something about it is comforting and kind of makes me feel not so alone in the loneliness I feel. If that makes sense. The only place I get to see them anymore is my dreams. It's almost like my brain refuses to believe that they are really gone...but I feel like my heart feels that they are missing and will forever mourn them.
I finally understand the meaning of this song,cause the part where he sang "when i wake up, dream isn't done, i wanna see your face and know i made it home" really hits the spot because I've lost someone who i was in a relationship for almost 5 years back in 2017 and to this days i still wish i was the one who she ended up with but that's not the case anymore..😭
imagine sitting in a meadow with someone you love on a warm summer late afternoon. vibrant flowers sway in the gentle breeze and golden sunrays make that person's eyes shine bright. with an acoustic guitar resonating in their hands, they're gazing at you, and singing this song to you. neither of you can hide the smiles that color your faces. ...i think this is my favorite all time low song.
I first listened to this song when I was like, in like, 9th grade. (So, I had to be.. 14..?) Now it's three years later, and this song still takes my breath away. Every. Time.
Tbh I'm really sick of people saying that ATL sounds like 5SOS. No, 5SOS sounds like ATL. ATL was here _far_ before 5SOS was, so for people to say that ATL is "just like 5 Seconds of Summer" is really ignorant so please stop. I don't hate 5 Seconds of Summer, but I honestly don't like them because of how unoriginal they are.
If I have to choose a complete list of my favorite All Time Low songs. This one definitely cracks the top 5 of my favorite all time low songs. Just many of those songs that shows Alex's songwriting brilliance.
I have such fantasies about this song being like way longer lol I never want it to end. The feeling it gives me is so like. . Unique to this song. All time low is good at that with their sound-scaping. Another one like this is My Only One
I haven't listened to this song since it came out... but my dog passed away, and I can't stop listening to it... I really want to see her face and know I made it home 😭
Big fan of ATL. Alice In Wonderland is my favorite movie of all time. Took me fudging years to find out they did a song for the movie cmcjskksjc. (I freaked out when I found out they did Painting Flowers Cx)
They will always be my favorite. I don't see why people don't like them, though I guess I'm kinda glad they aren't played on the radio (at least stations where I live) so then they aren't being overplayed. Love this song
All Time Low❤When I wake up dream isn't done. I wanna see your face and know I made it home.If nothing is true.What more can I do .I am still painting flowers for you.
that song is sooo great. it reminds me of alice in wonderland, because of the lines "painting flowers", or "i don't wanna lose my head", haha :D aaaand awesome video :) the background picture is beautiful :)
wow ok so a few years ago when I didn't knew atl I listened to this song on a daily basis and I loved it so freakin much and then like one year ago I discovered atl as a band and I was so blown away with my feelings because _damn_ those were good memories and I was so different back then and it made me cry.
"I wanna see your face and know I made it home."
Hit me right in the feels.
That is my favorite line in any song ever.
I hear voices over my shoulder hits me in the feels because i kind of have hallitinations of voices
I wish I could have appreciated this song when it came out, as well as this band. They're both awesome. Just glad I have come to appreciate them now.
That moment when you realize this song is about trying to keep someone you lost and start crying... You heard what they said, but you still keep hoping and 'painting flowers'... Hoping you can get them back, or do something different...
I fail to understand why this song is so underrated
Me either
Same here ❤️
Saaaame here!!! :(
1.the song was sadly written just for the movie
2.They never perform this song live at all...
-i dont think theres a music video
-movie only soundtrack and like many in the album aside from the main Alice by Avril, it doesnt seem to be promoted much or like someone said, played live.
for some reason when he says "I am still painting flowers for you" I imagine Alex, Jack, Rian, and Zack painting all the white roses red like in the movie and they ask each other "hey can you pass me the paint bucket?" and then they get into a huge paint war...
hey stop making me cry
i was already crying man you didn’t have to do this 😭😭
THIS SONG MAKES ME FEEL SO NOSTALGIC LIKE SERIOUSLY
It reminds me of hazy memories of the past, in which only a few are clear
it reminds me of being in the car and listening to the radio and looking out of the window, as we drive through almost farm like land, feeling peaceful as the land goes by in a blurr
When you're in the car, or hanging out with friends, and you realize that soon that moment will only fade into a memory, if you even still remember it
idk
It just reminds me of those things
It also reminds me of a song I feel like I've heard before like a few years ago on the radio...
Yeah I'm sorry for this comment but I JUST HAD TO SHARE HOW NOSTALGIC I FEEL
this is exactly how i feel.
same, it hits harder when you’re in quarantine 😔🤛
I strongly feel this too, it's like I was in a peaceful time in my childhood when i used to play videogames all day long, play soccer with my friends, and simply going outside, or in a travel with my families. It's like all of that was magic, and im grateful that it happened.
When they said the "I wanna see your face and know I made it home." I literally started crying. It so sweet. 😢❤️😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Omg same
2022 still as relevant as middle school times 😭❤️ glad to reconnect with it!
I FOUND THIS SONG THREE YEARS AGO AND IT'S BRINGING BACK MEMORIES. PS: for those of you who don't know, this song was written for Tim Burton's film "Alice in Wonderland". This song is on the album Almost Alice and it features songs written for the movie but didn't quite make it.
FUCK- PAONTING FLOWERS LIKE THEY LITERALLY DID FIR THE QUEEN I AM DEAD NOW
But is it in the movie?
It didn't make it, that's why the album is called "Almost Alice"
Oh right
I cry every single time I listen to this song. I have the lyrics "I am still painting flowers for you..." drawn on my wrist with a flower below that.
There is no other song I could fall asleep more peacefully to than this one. Does anyone else almost fall into a trance listening to this masterpiece?
10 years ago, I stumbled upon this video and instantly fell in love with this band. I hope to see this band live soon ❤️
I think of American Horror Story when Tate gives Violet the painted flower. I love this song with a passion
I think of ahs every time I hear this song! I'm glad I'm not the only one lol
SAME OMG
Ohmy gosh! Yes! You saying that makes me think about it when I go back and listen to it and it's making me cry!!!
2K16 and still listening to this beautiful song... :)
Just say 2016 like the normal people of this world..
+GlonX who wants to be normal
GlonX true
Dude okay, damn I just wished this song made it on some sort of album that they released because honestly it's beautiful. Nothing I love more than hearing songs by my favorite band that isn't on one of their CDs and I find it by chance. It's beautiful.
I really love the high pitched "you" harmony in the last chorus 😊
I love this song so much. Seriously, it's such a beautiful song and it is definitely my favorite song by All Time Low. It combined two of my favorite things, music, and Alice in Wonderland.

"when i wake up,the dream isnt done"
this song makes me cry
You're at the top of the comments for every atl song I look up 😂😂😂
SpyroLover Pie im at the top comments for freaking everything
+Hey Moon this is very true
This is like the millionth time I've encountered you,on several different artists/bands.Goddamn xD
same here
Every time I listen to this song it makes me want to cry😭 it's SO cute... I can't even....
I know right? 😭 It's so nice when ATL makes a slowish song!
No joke, I discovered this song from Wattpad fanfiction. Thank you fanfiction
Oh god its been a long time since I bought and heard this album and thanks to it I discovered my love for rock bands like ATL, All American rejects, Tokio Hotel, etc . No matter how old this album may be I always carry it around with me I just hope the album also features some great punk band's.

The right person doesnt leave, always remember that
imagine sitting in a meadow with someone you love on a warm summer late afternoon. vibrant flowers sway in the gentle breeze and golden sunrays make that person's eyes shine bright. with an acoustic guitar resonating in their hands, they're gazing at you, and singing this song to you. neither of you can hide the smiles that color your faces.
...i think this is my favorite all time low song.
You sound like a writer.
But yes, that would be lovely
"I painted it black, I know how you don't like normal things."
+Patrice Urie Dude you're everywhere!
AHS!!!! yesss
OH MY GOD
I HEARD AMERICAN HORROR STORY
HELLOOOOOO
AHS
Ana Soult Aguilar SAME

the nostalgia this song gives to me is too high.... i miss you soooo much!
I first listened to this song when I was like, in like, 9th grade. (So, I had to be.. 14..?)
Now it's three years later, and this song still takes my breath away.
Every. Time.

I absolutely love this song. This is probably my favorite song from All Time Low
wtf why is this song fulling me up with tears!!!!!!! im just too adicted to alex

Tbh I'm really sick of people saying that ATL sounds like 5SOS.
No, 5SOS sounds like ATL. ATL was here _far_ before 5SOS was, so for people to say that ATL is "just like 5 Seconds of Summer" is really ignorant so please stop. I don't hate 5 Seconds of Summer, but I honestly don't like them because of how unoriginal they are.
Thank u some one has a brain
No, thank _you_ for being rational and not freaking out because I dissed a band that's not even that good
And that's one of the many reasons why it frustrates me so much
i like pie ^_^
UnimaginablyCheezy uuhhhhh... okay?
I love how they turned Alice and wondering into a song
If I have to choose a complete list of my favorite All Time Low songs. This one definitely cracks the top 5 of my favorite all time low songs. Just many of those songs that shows Alex's songwriting brilliance.
Totally makes sense now. Just got done with watching Alice in Wonderland. Love the movie and this song!
I love this song and the band!!
I have such fantasies about this song being like way longer lol I never want it to end. The feeling it gives me is so like. . Unique to this song. All time low is good at that with their sound-scaping. Another one like this is My Only One
very good song and lyrics video. thank you.
OMG ALL TIME LOW THE BEST!!!
"I am still painti'n flowers for you"luv it!!!
This is an amazing song and the picture you chose was amazing. It really does embody the song fully :) thank you for this great video
I want the lyrics "I am still painting flowers for you..." on my left wrist with a little flower below them
Nice video. Awesome song.
Perfectness.
I haven't listened to this song since it came out... but my dog passed away, and I can't stop listening to it... I really want to see her face and know I made it home 😭
My new favorite song by them even though its not on their album. Before my favorites were Stay Awake/Remembering Sunday
Big fan of ATL. Alice In Wonderland is my favorite movie of all time. Took me fudging years to find out they did a song for the movie cmcjskksjc. (I freaked out when I found out they did Painting Flowers Cx)
Oh gosh! ATL used to be my favorite band and i almost forgot about this song. Thanks i found it again!
2k16 and still love this song soooo much.. ❤

Perks of being a wallflower. I love that film.✨
This song is perfect..
your videos are freaking awesome. and i love this song
They will always be my favorite. I don't see why people don't like them, though I guess I'm kinda glad they aren't played on the radio (at least stations where I live) so then they aren't being overplayed. Love this song
June 2022-and what a song to take a drive to down PCH after the last 3 years of BS…
You never fail until you stop trying 💪💪💪
All time low is .. perfect.. no more.. perfect
Every time I hear "Jersey" by Make Out Monday, I think of this song and come here.
+Victoria Strider Make Out Monday
Love this song so much that I bought the album! ♥
Oh my gosh.. This song is sooo sweet!!!
"I wanna see your face and know I made it home" oh my god best line for a love song I'v ever heard in my entire life.
Love this song ^~^....All Time Low rocks!!!
Was me and and ex's song in highschool. come back here every once and awhile to feel nostalgic. Hope all is well Amber
"I'm hopin' for the chance to make it all right". Oh my. Here come those "I miss you" tears... It relates to me way too well.
how did i get here i was just listening to full on screamo and watching teletubbies
my favorite comment by far
if you think it's called screamo you shouldn't be listening to it 😂
+Nikita Yapari Really, As someone who listens to "Screamo" I know that you don't call it screamo, and only true fans know that.
+Nightmare Kitten It's just an easier way to describe it, when people do that 9 times out of 10 they mean literally no offense
My question is how could you watch teletubbies and not get nightmares
Omgosh. DAMN AMAZING SONG. Didn't connect with it for the first time but slowly, I find it I really can't live without it.
Love this song xxx and good work with the lyrics,and loved the backround
I'm going to put this song in a tribute I'm planning on making.
Loved the video and the music is fabulous! ♥.♥ All Time Low >.
This was the first song I heard by them and I'm so happy that I listened to more of their songs
All Time Low❤When I wake up dream isn't done. I wanna see your face and know I made it home.If nothing is true.What more can I do .I am still painting flowers for you.
Thank you! This song is fantastic! :)
I love this song, it always brings me to tears.
This is so beautiful :) added to my favorites
Behind only Missing You on my list of favorites from them. Both so fit my heart and my life....

OMFG THIS IS MY JAM FOREVER
I wish they had more songs like this. It's been one of my favorites since it first came out.

WOOOH BIGGEST FAN OF ALL TIME LOW!!!

I already knew this, thank you very much.
wow ok so a few years ago when I didn't knew atl I listened to this song on a daily basis and I loved it so freakin much and then like one year ago I discovered atl as a band and I was so blown away with my feelings because _damn_ those were good memories and I was so different back then and it made me cry.
This is my favorite song by far
Just beautiful ! =)
My second favorite song by them. I have no idea how this didn’t make it onto an album.
Still in love w this song 😍
Wow, this song is amazing. Reminds me of a love song.

This is my favorite song. EVER. I can't stop listening to it. I may need help
This is so obviously a prerequisite of Somewhere in Neverland. Love it
