I wonder under what point of view our narrator is experiencing this ugly violent situation, is he the neighbour, the child in the family that the abuse is aa every phenomenon or perhaps the story of a girlfriend with a former boyfriend?
Never Again
Lyrics
He's drunk again, it's time to fight
She must have done something wrong tonight
The living room becomes a boxing ring
It's time to run when you see him clenching his hands
She's just a woman, never again
I hear her scream from down the hall
Amazing she can even talk at all
She cries to me go back to bed
I'm terrified that she'll wind up dead in his hands
She's just a woman, never again
Been there before but not like this
Seen it before but not like this
Never before have I ever seen it this bad
She's just a woman, never again
Just tell the nurse you slipped and fell
It starts to sting as it starts to swell
She looks at you, she wants the truth
It's right out there in the waiting room with those hands
Lookin' just as sweet as he can, never again
Seen it before but not like this
Been there before but not like this
Never before have I ever seen it this bad
She's just a woman, never again
Never again
Father's a name you haven't earned yet
You're just a child with a temper
Haven't you heard don't hit a lady?
Kicking your ass would be a pleasure
He's drunk again, it's time to fight
Same old shit, just on a different night
She grabs the gun, she's had enough
Tonight she'll find out how fuckin' tough is this man
Pulls the trigger fast as she can, never again
Seen it before but not like this
Been there before but not like this
Never before have I ever seen it this bad
She's just a woman, never again
Seen it before but not like this
Been there before but not like this
Never before have I ever seen it this bad
She's just a woman, never again
Never again, never again
No, never again

What is the Meaning of Never Again
?
Just how much does the never again cost? Here it's pulling out a gun and firing him because what else can she do anymore? it's him or her and it reduces to that, simply. I just always found it ironic how never again tends to entail so much weight every time. I don't mean the song, I mean if you think of every situation where you got to say never again, it took a lot to get there. They are two simple words and yet, they have to much baggage behind every time.
