Watch Over You Lyrics

Cover art for Watch Over You lyrics by Alter Bridge

For me, this song is about someone who has always tried to look after a person they love, "I tried to carry you, And make you whole" but despite all of it he feels that he is neglected, "You say you care for me, But hide it well"

I feel that the reason he is leaving is because he cant take the situation any longer and must leave to save himself, "It's more than I can take"

In the chorus i think he is asking rhetorical questions in a way which says "no one else will do/be there for you as much as i was"

That is my interpretation of the song.
