Watch Over Me
Craving Lucy Lyrics

"Watch Over Me" by Craving Lucy is a song about the struggle with one's inner demons and the aftermath of a significant relationship ending. The lyrics in the song portray the pain that the singer feels, having lost the person who was their guiding light. The opening lines, "Too many times I've tried to answer the voices in my head, Too many nights I see that anger, all of the things I said," reveal that the singer has been grappling with their inner demons for a long time. They admit that the voices in their head have been hard to silence, and they have said things that they now regret.

The chorus of the song, "Take me down and leave me lonely, who's left to watch over me. Now you're gone, my light is fading, you brought on the darkness in me." expresses the sense of abandonment and loss that the singer is feeling. They feel lost and alone, and their light is fading without the support of the person who was there for them. They blame the person for "bringing on the darkness" and leaving them vulnerable to their inner demons, which is why they plead for someone to "watch over them."

The bridge of the song "Oh, the sanctity that circles me, broken. My soul's been fighting solemnly," further emphasizes the depth of the singer's pain. They feel they have lost everything that held meaning and purpose in their life, and they are struggling to find their way back to the light. The song ends with a plea for someone to watch over them, as they feel vulnerable and alone without that guiding presence.
