 The Lyric Of Song

“FADED”
-Alan Walker-

You were the shadow to my light

Did you feel us
Another start
You fade away
Afraid our aim is out of sight
Wanna se us
Alight

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 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

A. The Mean Of Song

This song to tell about someone who loved author’s. The author asked himself,
whether people feel their relationship between them, or is it all just a sham. The
author tells someone that sometimes appear, but a time will disappear.
The author and his girlfriend had one hope, which is a real relationship or life.
Relationships where the lovers live together normally. However, he has a fear
that the expectation it would be difficult to achieve even unlikely to materialize.
The author here was remembering all the good times he spent with his
girlfriend. Although it was only for a moment, he considered it all very valuable
and hard to believe. So he asked, "Was it all just a fantasy? Is he just
imagination?".
The author describes the sadness and even despair them to meet each other. The
author does not know how to relate emotionally with her lover. He lost.
Atlantis, a beautiful city that is lost, the author implies feelings towards their
relationship.
He implies that he could not relate to her lover because no one knows where
Atlantis is located. He explained about the negative thoughts that haunt his
mind. Writers too worried to do because of the "monster" has been in charge of
him.
The author feels disoriented and lost their identity. So he asked his girlfriend to
find her. He said about a person's mind is 'shallow'. Shallow thoughts are not
enough to understand the real feelings that exist within him. He should explore
emotions and soul deeper.
The author describes a time when he already understood the feeling. Describing
about the sunken city of Atlantis in the ocean floor. Above sea level, the sun
shining trang. However, getting to the bottom of the ocean, the light is fading.
The author implies that her lover set fire to the passion and love in him.
