seems it's a little about murder too, and death. maybe someone grappling with the darker parts of their psyche. trying to be a responsible, honorable person rather than giving in to the ebb and flow of their emotions and ruin. much of it deals with impending fame and reknown- i.e. "millions of rolling eyes..." or maybe the narrator is afraid of judgement? "millions of ways to wear his hide tonight/ you've got yours and i've got mine" - maybe the personas he puts on, the way he has to fake his image instead of being naked, honest, and real. ultimately i think he makes the commitment, to do what he can to make himself the best person possible, for his lover as well as himself.
