I think that "Everyone is the one until the one falls down" refers to how people will claim to be teamed up with each other, but when one person fails, the others don't want to have anything to do with him.

I love the horns at the end of the song. They give a sort of doomed, apocalyptic impression. Whenever I listen to them, I imagine a movie scene with this as the background music: I picture a fleet of aliens about to wipe out humanity, with Earth preparing for its final stand. I know that sounds lame, but that's the sort of image I get from it.
