“Part of Me” is lyrically designed to connect on a personal level with listeners, invoking themes of missing and losing loved ones. It’s relatable for anyone who has ever felt the absence of someone dear. This single doesn’t just tug at the heartstrings but does so in a grand, sweeping style that aims to fill the room with sound.

As the band mentions, “The ethos behind ‘Part of Me,’ and all the songs, is the massive cinematic sound, especially between the keys/synths and the massive guitar sweeps.” This ethos resonates deeply within the track, making it a standout example of modern indie melodic pop rock.
