Part Of Me
PRIME Sth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I have been aching with my knife
To cut my heart wide open
And bleed my love to you
There's nothing I wouldn't do
If I could be the one you love
I know I would make it through
If you would only notice
Chorus:
That you're the air I breathe
The one that makes me bleed
You're the only one that makes me feel alive
You are everything to me
But you don't even see
You don't see me
I have been waiting all this time
For you to come and save my life
But you don't even notice
If I could find a way to make you see
Repeat Chorus
Tonight I came in through your window
Tonight I crawled over your floor
And without a sound I moved into your bedroom
Just to see you there sleeping unaware
If I could find a way to make you see
Repeat Chorus
You should be a part of me
And I should be a part of you
You should be a part of me
And I should be a part of you
But if you want me to be nothing
Then nothing I will be
But if you want me to be nothing
You've got to set me free
The lyrics to PRIME Sth's song "Part of Me" convey a sense of longing, passion, and unrequited love. The singer has been waiting their entire life for the person they love to notice them, but despite their best efforts, they feel ignored and invisible. The visceral language--"aching with my knife" and "cut my heart wide open"--suggests the intensity of the singer's desire for their love to be reciprocated.
The chorus highlights just how much this person means to the singer, with phrases like "you're the air I breathe" and "you're everything to me." Yet, despite the singer's obsession, they can't seem to break through to the person they love. The final verse takes on a slightly disturbing edge, with the singer sneaking into their love's bedroom just to see them sleeping. This is the ultimate symbol of the singer's desperation and inability to let go of their feelings.
Overall, "Part of Me" is a powerful representation of the pain that can come with unrequited love--the feeling that someone else seems to hold your happiness in their hands, and no matter what you do, you can't make them see how much you need them.

I have been waiting all my life
I have been waiting for someone like you my whole life
I have been aching with my knife
I have been yearning for you deeply, even causing self-inflicted pain
To cut my heart wide open
To be vulnerable and honest with my feelings, exposing my true self to you
And bleed my love to you
To express my love for you in a way that is intense and passionate
There's nothing I wouldn't do
I am willing to do anything for you
If I could be the one you love
If only you could see me as someone worthy of your love
I know I would make it through
With your love, I know I can overcome anything
If you would only notice
If only you could see me and acknowledge my existence
If I could find a way to make you see
If only I could show you how much you mean to me
That you're the air I breathe
You are the reason I am alive and continue to exist
The one that makes me bleed
The one who causes me pain and hurt because of their absence
You're the only one that makes me feel alive
You bring color to my life and make everything worth living for
You are everything to me
You are the center of my universe and the reason for my existence
But you don't even see
You are unaware of my love and how it is consuming me
I have been waiting all this time
I have been patiently waiting for you to notice me
For you to come and save my life
I am hoping that you can bring meaning to my life and rescue me from this sorrow
Tonight I came in through your window
I infiltrated your home to try to get closer to you
Tonight I crawled over your floor
I tried to be as discreet as possible and make it to your room without being detected
And without a sound I moved into your bedroom
I made it to your bedroom without you even noticing
Just to see you there sleeping unaware
I just want to be near you and watch you even if it's just while you sleep
You should be a part of me
You are meant to be a part of my life and my journey from now on
And I should be a part of you
We complement each other in a way that makes us both better versions of ourselves
But if you want me to be nothing
If you don't feel the same and just want me to disappear
Then nothing I will be
I will disappear from your life and not bother you again
You've got to set me free
You have to let me go for me to truly move on and find happiness elsewhere
