i think this song could be partly about using someone and recognizing that it's what you're doing -- eating up all of the person's love in a really gluttonous way. in this case, the narrator has enough sense or rationality to end it before it becomes a bigger problem: "please don't even call" so it makes the cut cleaner.
on the other hand, sometimes i think the whole thing is about texas and his mixed feelings toward his home state. more likely, i guess, is that it's a combination of person and place that he wants to avoid -- it's like a total escape. and he sounds so desperate and weary that it makes sense to me.
