The song sounds like an internal dialogue in Art's mind. He's a recovered drug addict that's fighting the urge to start using again.
"don't fall down now, you will never get up" sounds like Art's conscience telling him not to go back. in the last verse, he relapses and realizes that despite 10 years of sobriety, he's back to square one. this is one of my all time favorite everclear songs and has the most powerful message delivered
