"You saved my life
With blood and through sacrifice
The lessons that I've learned
I promise you I said
Never again
Never again
No never"
Seems to me that he's referring to his past drug use, where Shannon might've been the one who pulled him out of it, and then promised to never go back to that life. The "race" might be to get away from the the part of him that still wants drugs.
"Love is a dangerous game to play
Hearts are made for breaking and for pain
I'm selfish and I'm cold"
I feel that this is also about drugs. He's selfish in the way that he doesn't care about how his drug use affects the people around him, and therefore break their hearts when he keeps taking drugs.
