Again Lyrics
I am wearing this weight Again
It cuts like it did then
It's consuming all my thoughts
and swallowing me Again
And what you see is what's left of me
but I'm here
I didn't think I'd scare very easily
but I fear this thing
It is wearing me out and thin
Paralyzing me Again
It was vicious all the way here
I am barely alive
I wish you love
With anyone else but me
I wish you love with anyone
And all I can do I will do for you
If I'm here
I promise you I'll remember you
While I'm here
I wish you love Again
I am surrendering me
Surrendering mine
It cuts like it did then
It's consuming all my thoughts
and swallowing me Again
but I'm here
I didn't think I'd scare very easily
but I fear this thing
Paralyzing me Again
It was vicious all the way here
I am barely alive
With anyone else but me
I wish you love with anyone
If I'm here
I promise you I'll remember you
While I'm here
I am surrendering me
Surrendering mine

I think it could also be related to Butterfly as well, but I think it's more about being in love with someone and then the love faded away for the person you love. You want the best for them so you let them go, but still have feelings for them and hope they find what they need.
It seems like a giving up but not quite in the normal sense of defeat. More resigned, like a deserving defeat even though this may be untrue.
This song is about love and the emotional burden that she is carrying again and again. She loves someone, and she chooses to move on because she knows she can’t make that person love her the same way she is loving him. And she doesn’t want to love him, cause it’s too painful, maybe it is forbidden. There’s no need to force something that she doesn’t know if it will work. After time passes, that weight comes again, and it cuts the same way as it did in the past. The same feelings come again and consume her. What remains of her is the person she is now in the present, even if she is alone or sad, she is still alive, surviving. She is now scared again and she fears she will do something about it. Still, she is torturing herself, and she can barely live like this, but she is too strong and she decides to let this one pass. She wishes all the love to this person but with anyone else but her, with anyone else, cause she knows she will never have his love. I think that perhaps this person is her friend, that is why she says that “all I can do I will do for you if I’m here”. Despite the love she has for this friend, she chooses to remain silent and not confess her love, she doesn’t want to break the relationship she has with him, her friendship is much more important. “I promise you I’ll remember you, while I’m here” meaning she will always love him, until the end of her days. The end is so sad, because she is finally surrendering herself and her love to someone else, she will never experience the love with him, the one love she wanted and she sacrificed so much for it. She wishes love to him Again, with anyone else but her. That is what she can do.
if another song was about incest ... then this might be as well ... it makes sense if you read the lyrics and let them linger in your mind ...
