I think that this song is saying that these days, women expect so much out of romance, that it destroys the relationships they have because the men can't live up to these unrealistic expectations.
The chorus says that he won't try and live up to these romantic expectations in an attempt to save their relationship: "I'm killing romance in the name of love".
I know it sounds crazy but this is my interpretation of it.
