Here I Go Again
Jets Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

I can't think straight
Voices scream insane
Calling out to let me go
Just let me go

I have thought for far to long
Is it right , or is it wrong
Now I think that's my mind
It's just loosing time

But it takes so much time before you realise
Why some things never change
They always stay just the same
The first taste of death is sweet

Feel it burning , an internal heat
Driving me into white light, killing time
Well , it takes so much time before you realise
Why some things never change

They always stay, just the same
There's no comeback
When your playing with a stacked deck
If you loose , you only cheat youself

Come with me, take my hand
Help me to make a stand
I can't give in, cause my mind and my heart
Mind and heart bleed

Well, it's no surprise my friend
Another hero dies
What goes down comes back around, and it never
No, never lies

It takes so much time




Oh why do some things never change
They always stay, just the same.

Overall Meaning

In Jets's song "Here I Go Again," the lyrics delve into the inner turmoil and confusion that the singer is experiencing. The opening lines, "I can't think straight / Voices scream insane / Calling out to let me go / Just let me go," paint a picture of a mind overwhelmed by conflicting thoughts and emotions. The repeated plea to be let go signifies a desire for release from the internal chaos that the singer is grappling with.


As the lyrics progress, the singer reflects on the passage of time and the constant uncertainty that accompanies decision-making. The lines, "Is it right, or is it wrong / Now I think that's my mind / It's just losing time," suggest a struggle with determining the correct path to take and a fear of making the wrong choice. The theme of time running out and the consequences of indecision are prevalent in this section of the song.


The mention of the "first taste of death" being sweet metaphorically captures the allure of succumbing to internal struggles and embracing self-destructive behaviors. The intense imagery of "Feel it burning, an internal heat / Driving me into white light, killing time" conveys the overwhelming urge to surrender to dark impulses and escape from reality. The repetition of the idea that "some things never change" highlights the cyclical nature of self-destructive patterns and the difficulty in breaking free from them.


The closing verses of the song introduce a sense of resignation and acceptance of fate. The reference to "Another hero dies" underscores the inevitability of struggle and loss, suggesting a fatalistic view of life. The call for companionship and support, "Come with me, take my hand / Help me to make a stand," contrasts with the underlying sense of hopelessness and the acknowledgment that some things may never change. Overall, the song delves into themes of internal conflict, temptation, and the struggles of navigating a complex and unpredictable world.
