Meaning
The title, as a phrase, has several meanings, such as being "in (too) deep (to quit)" (that is, too invested in some project to abandon it), being "in deep (shit)" (that is, in a lot of trouble), or being "in deep (water)" (that is, struggling simply to maintain one's own current situation).
