“Part of Me” is the eleventh track from Evanescence’s fifth studio album, The Bitter Truth. It details Amy Lee’s move from grief to re-embracing the magic of life.
[Verse 1]
Not on your life
Won't let it break me, won't give up the fight
But on this last thread, I'm holding so tight
Feed my imaginings, don't let a sweet dream die
[Verse 2]
Not on your life
I'm not abandoning - I have survived
Somehow still standing through death and through time
I need your love like a drug keeping me alive
[Pre-Chorus]
Drown me in your blinding light
[Chorus 1]
I will be more than my survival
Own these scars on my heart
Even in dreams I hear you calling
Breaking the surface, I won't let go
You're part of me
[Verse 3]
Can't stop me now

No time for hatred, no holding back now
Set me on firе, I like it the way it burns
[Verse 4]
Hands on your heart
Who rеally thought we would make it this far?
What good could come of embracing the dark?
We found each other through brokenness and now look how strong we are
[Pre-Chorus]
Drown me in your blinding light
[Chorus 2]
I will be more than my survival
Own these scars on my heart
Even in dreams I hear you calling
So I know it's still worth believing
It's not just a feeling
As long as I don't let it go
Don't let me go
[Chorus 3]
I will be more than my survival
Own these scars on my heart
Even in dreams I hear you calling
Breaking the surface, I won't let go
You're part of me now and always
