Love this song! It sounds like he wants to make a break and run from a way of life he's become enmeshed in that's sucking up his soul, and threatens to separate him from someone he truly loves; and would eventually lead to the death of that relationship. He can see the danger of the storm clouds coming more and more frequently, and he knows he cant/won't be strong enough to endure them all without damage, so he feels the only way he can escape this shadow of certain doom is to remain one step ahead with this person every time it (that feeling of losing all control) presents itself. It seems like it's an uphill battle he could end up losing if he's not very careful, and he knows it too well.
