I think the song is about how people's expectations and their actions are at contrast. They all want you to soar "to be high" but they never help you stay aloft, they only "throw you down a rope" when you're so far down you cant see the top. And then, in contrast, if you soar to high, they drag you back down "throw you up a rope". the first two lines of the last verse contain the whole meaning. "Everybody wants to see you fall. they why they love to get you high"
