“Faded” is the second track on Mariah Carey’s 14th studio album Me. I Am Mariah… The Elusive Chanteuse (2014).
It is a luscious R&B song produced by Mike Will Made It and Carey’s vocals feature climaxes with the song taking influence from R&B hip-hop and pop genres.
Mariah reminisces about...
[Intro]
My friend, hmm my love
Faded, oh
[Verse 1]
It was overcast that day
And I was feeling some kind of way
I pulled the covers up over my head
Tried reaching for you, but that was then
I can’t forget
My heart's hung over but ain't nothing different
I close my eyes, nothing but faded pictures of you, of you...
[Chorus]
Faded
Baby you’re faded
Baby you’re faded
Faded
[Post-Chorus]
You come and you go
You’re just an echo
A whisper in my ear
But in the morning you’re not here
So intangible
Just like an echo
[Verse 2]
Still tryin' to pretend it's possible
To bring us back to life
But we continue to subside
Hanging on for life on this rollercoaster ride
I call your name, baby subconsciously
Always somewhere but you're not there for me
Boy you, boy you...
[Chorus]
You're faded
Baby you’re faded
Baby you’re faded
Faded
[Post-Chorus]
(Boy you just come and you go)
You come and you go
You’re just an echo
(Just an echo, just an echo)
A whisper in my ear
But in the morning you’re not here
So intangible
Just like an echo
[Outro]
Faded
You’re always somewhere but you’re not there for me
Not there for me, not there for me
You’re always somewhere but you’re not there for me
Not there for me, not there for me
