Mae - Our Love Is A Painted Picture Lyrics

Lyrics:

Our love is a painted picture I've been working on for years
But every single one, when I think it's done
The impression disappears, Oh no!
Another one has gotten away from me

"So where'd they go?"
I would like to know, but can't explain
In stereo, is where my story goes
While another one it lives inside my brain
And it can get the best of me
Until I can hardly breathe

It can seem like there's no answer
And it can feel like there's just pain
Yeah all at once, all at once
All at once to find
No sign of rain

A room in my mind is where I find those portraits of before
And the way they're tossed they make me think I'm lost
When I see them scattered on the floor
Oh, what a messy place to be

And if a month is a day in the life that's waiting for an open gate
It occurred to me insecurities are mounting up and "making fate"
But then again I see (right there)
The beginnings of the map for me

Yeah it can seem like there are too many answers
And it can feel like there's just pain
All at once, all at once
All at once to find
There was never any rain

It can seem like there's one answer
And it can feel like there's no pain
All at once, all at once
All at once you'll find yourself dancing in the rain

Truly beautiful music. Been listening to y’all since day 1 !
Soooo stoked to see you guys show soon
~Much love!!!

Man it’s crazy to see you guys back. Every song you guys have ever made has put a great impact in my life..it’s been a way of comfort to my darkest days. So with that being said I thank you guys always and forever and I can’t wait to hear more from you guys 🙏🏼
welcome back!!!

Didn't realize this song was a thing before the new EP but it has become one of my favorite Mae songs since i heard it on new EP.

This deserves millions of views. I'm on the brink of tears from nostalgia... such a beautifully incredible song.

I hope yall play this in Pittsburgh you know I'll be singing it with all my heart. Thank you MAE

This song makes me feel like I'm simultaneously wrapped up in a warm blanket of love and security as well as on the verge of a complete emotional breakdown. It is so full of emotion and it stirs up so much within me

Holy shit, was feeling like "hey, lets listen some mae tonight", then I check Internets - turns out new stuff coming tomorrow from you guys! This timing :O

OMG This Time Is The Last Time they made music. I've been Waiting Over & Over for them to put out Anything. In the meantime, I've been Giving It Away cuz I've been In Pieces ever since they broke up. Mae is truly The Cure for A Day In The Life that has no Soundtrack To Our Movie yet. It's like Night/Day now that they've released a new Melody, to create new Memories. I realize now that We're So Far Away from the Mistakes We Knew We Were Making and I wonder if Mae is saying Goodbye, Goodnight or Good Morning to a new Futur(o) of music. <3 Mae

I need more oh my god. Singularity was my everything

Then you would love "5 Light Years," just released today!

I am one of your biggest fans mae.. From Philippines

I like this, but it doesn't have that special something destination beautiful and the everglow had. Those two albums were works of art.

I listen to all your albums frequently. I love your music so much definitely my favorite band. I hope you do another concert and come to Denver went to see you last time you were here and hopefully I get to see you again.

OMG, I can't believe they're still making music! <3

I need more Mae music in my life. Even if it's lofi and raw, just get some stuff out there.Much love from Atlanta. Loving the new song.

I have been waiting years for this! Thank you, This is amazing! I didnt expected otherwise tho :D

This is easily my favorite song of all time. Everything about it is fantastic. Mae never disappoints.

Hope for more amazing stuff soon!

"5 Light Years" out NOW!

Is there an Album coming soon? This new one is perfect.

I saw you guys in concert with Roper- it was my first time hearing you. I went to the merch table and all that was left was some B-side CDs. I didn't get one at the time, but when I got home I got online and immediately started looking. You quickly became my favorite band. Over and over I'd listen to The Everglow- and like many who have commented here have said, your voice and instruments became the soundtrack to my life- the starry night moments- the first kisses, the broken hearts, the yearning moments. All of it. Thank you for giving my feelings a voice. Thank you for making something new. I've missed you guys.

5Truths respect!

Excellently put.

Whoa dude.

Their songs just don't seem to go anywhere anymore. They used to have such a beautiful flow and progression. They're still good, just not what I like now I guess. Glad they are still sharing music.

Check out their new song "5 Light Years" and then make that statement. So freaking good.

dtack777 ..... Exactly. They reached their peak with Singularity.

That outro gives me chills

today I do 6 hours non stop to play this song rapidly ..

animas! grabi akong hulat sa inyong album do! Nindota gyud atong last ninyo nga ep ang evening.. idol kaayo! Nindota pud kaayo ani... di na ko kahuwat sa inyong album gyod Mga master!

Finally, what i've been waiting for.. where have you guys been?
btw, if you feel like doing another concert in Bandung, Indonesia like you did some 8 years ago, i'll be there (again).
great new song, guys!! always love your music..

the first day I downloaded it on google play music, I listened to it 17 times...lol

This song is magical - so wonderful that MAE is back and recording new music.

So good to here new material from you guys! Cheers from Brasil

It was worth to wait so much time to hear new stuff from you guys.... This song is purely amazing!

Finally.... nice to hear beautiful song like this.. thank you mae.. this song made mae day

My heart and eyes sparkles with joy

best comebackkkkkkk ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is just what my soul needed 💓

this is about tearing the veil. when it comes stay true.

what's up with the time of the song being 6:06?

Mae was the soundtrack to my life for years and years. it's good to hear new stuff.

Gosh. It feels like watching one of Makoto Shinkai's movies. It would suit as Garden of Words' soundtrack. It's intriguing to see how much Mae have evolved, not only the music in general, the ambience, and the way of singing with added effects are far from boring.
Love it!

Glad to hear new music again!

Es tan hermosamente hermosa!

I didn't know they were still coming out with new music... I really am happy in the most caught offgaurd type of way
