Opposing the idea of grasping for unspoken meaning, other lines are to be taken exactly as they are addressed, “...you’ll never ever wanna come down” (Tyler). In order

In The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down, Lia Lee, who suffered from a serious form of epilepsy, faced obstacles in her treatment not only because of the doctors’ lack of complete understanding as to her condition, but her parents’ resistance to the actions of the doctors.

It is generally built from childhood, a very tender point in life, and in some cases the father chooses to shirk his responsibilities rather than be an active presence in their child’s life.
