Seeing as it's sung by a woman, I can only assume it's about her being in love with a girl with a boyfriend, like everyone's saying. But it definitely can go both ways. To get the obvious out of the way, as she is the one who "knows" that she's in love, she's the obsessor and her counterpart is the upsettor:
"Stroking my hand"- as to provide comfort to the obsessor, even though she (upsettor) doesn't know what she wants...kind of just going along with what the obsessor needs at the at moment while they're "holding hands"
"What's my position?/I don't understand"-Not really sure as to where she is in the other woman's life
"Am I your possession?/Am I in demand?/Oh when you turn to me/I'm in the quicksand"- She's unsure whether or not she is needed or even if she is seen as a person or as only a means to experimentation. But either way, the obsessor can't turn down the other woman because she's trapped by her love/seduction/whatever you want to call it.
