Today I killed, he was just a boy Eight before him, I knew them all In the fields a dying oath: Id kill them all to save my own ... See the rest of these lyrics 10th Man Down Lyrics on KOvideo

The noises in the background in the early intro tells of war, which makes sense in the context of the title and basic story. Now, we get into bits of pure conjecture. My guess is that this song is both a war-protest and a soldier-support. The war-protest is voiced in the line 'this aint my fight,' and the third verse: "Deliver me from this war/ Its not for me its because of you/ Devils instant my eternity/ Obey to kill to save yourself" The soldier support is in the ostensive meaning of the first verse, at it's clearest.
