An electronic ballad by British-born Norwegian EDM artist Alan Walker.

You were the shadow to my light
Did you feel us?
Another star
You fade away
Afraid our aim is out of sight
Wanna see us
Alive
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Was it all in my fantasy?
Where are you now?
Were you only imaginary?

Where are you now?
Atlantis
Under the sea
Under the sea
Where are you now
Another dream
The monsters running wild inside of me
I'm faded
I'm faded
So lost, I'm faded
I'm faded
So lost, I'm faded

These shallow waters, never met
What I needed
I'm letting go a deeper dive
Eternal silence of the sea I'm breathing
Alive
Where are you now
Where are you now
Under the bright but faded lights
You've set my heart on fire
Where are you now
Where are you now

Where are you now
Atlantis
Under the sea
Under the sea
Where are you now
Another dream
The monsters running wild inside of me
I'm faded
I'm faded
So lost, I'm faded
I'm faded
So lost, I'm faded.

Alan Walker wrote: "I would describe 'Faded' as a happy yet emotional song, appropriate for both sad and/or uplifting occasions. It's about searching for someone, something or somewhere lost. Or just feeling lost! One of the things I like the most about its lyrics is that the meaning can be interpreted freely by the listener."

The original version of this song was an instrumental titled 'Fade'. After signing with Sony Music Sweden, Walker released the vocal version 'Faded' with additional acoustic instruments. It features the voice of Norwegian singer-songwriter Iselin Solheim.
