it's almost as though his lover is one who always wants the easy way out: "Are you still training for the big race
by hoping the runners will die?". It sounds like things got hard and instead of facing the problem she's wanting to take the easy way out, she's wanting to run away from the problem instead of facing it. All the while the singer is seeing what she's doing and knows that if she opts to take that comfortable path then she'll, in the long run, regret what she did.
at least that's how i'm seeing it and can relate to some of the lines given my current situation.
