Faded Photo
Aggressive J-pop with new jack swing bounce and rock guitars, mid-160s feel, syncopated drums and punchy palm-muted riffs; verse rides tight staccato bass and clipped handclaps, pre-chorus opens with rising synth stacks and crowd shouts, chorus slams full-band power chords with glossy gang vocals and octave doubles. Add reversed cymbal swells, tape-stop snaps, and vocal ad-lib pings between lines. Bright, hard, and polished with a sharp arena bite., new jack swing, j-pop, rock

Lyrics
That frame on the mantel
Still wears your face
Dust on the glass
But I can’t erase
Your grin in the corner
Half gone, half alive
I touch that old picture
And I feel you strike
[Pre-Chorus]
Say it, say it
Don’t look away
One flash, one bruise
Then you fade
[Chorus]
Faded photo, hit me now
Faded photo, break me down
Hold that shape in my hands
Then slip like sand
Faded photo, call my name
Faded photo, spark that pain
I keep the flame, I keep the frame
But you’re not the same
[Verse 2]
The mantel is crowded
With ash and red tape
But your little smile
Cuts through the shade
I hear your laugh
In the crack of the floor
Then the whole house shakes
And I need you more
[Pre-Chorus]
Say it, say it
Don’t look away
One flash, one bruise
Then you fade
[Chorus]
Faded photo, hit me now
Faded photo, break me down
Hold that shape in my hands
Then slip like sand
Faded photo, call my name
Faded photo, spark that pain
I keep the flame, I keep the frame
But you’re not the same
[Bridge]
If I burn it, do you leave?
If I keep it, do you bleed?
I’m stuck between
What was and me
[Final Chorus]
Faded photo, hit me now
Faded photo, break me down
Hold that shape in my hands
Then slip like sand
Faded photo, call my name
Faded photo, spark that pain
I keep the flame, I keep the frame
But you’re not the same
