My projection of this one I guess:

It happens when he starts it. He stops her and makes her "carry on" as if everything is fine. He thinks she isn't there for him She gives in a little but he gives up.

For the chorus: She'll have more love invested when it all is over He leaves and sees everything he gave her He goes for the door but his eyes are glowing because he still wants her really bad. She's still there for him but he can't keep going.

"Racing on" The whole 2nd verse to me is about moving on but he's with her but it's not the same. "You stare me down you turn around"

My Interpretation
