All Your Friends Lyrics
On and on
You're told which side you're on
You're forced, you're thrown
To become side as to cut the corn
Aah
And all your friends they
Ride into the sunset
Fly into the sunset
And away they blow
And all your friends they
Ride into the sunset
Fly into the sunset
And away they're thrown
Into the fire
Ten below
The call come on the radio
Ahh
Over you go
And the red now all the rivers flow
The poppies grow
All your friends they
Ride into the sunset
Fly into the sunset
And away they're blown
All your friends they
Ride into the sunset
Arrive into the sunset
And they're taken home
Open fire
Open fire
Open fire
Open fire
Open fire
And fire
Just arrived, the fire
You're told which side you're on
You're forced, you're thrown
To become side as to cut the corn
And all your friends they
Ride into the sunset
Fly into the sunset
And away they blow
Ride into the sunset
Fly into the sunset
And away they're thrown
Into the fire
The call come on the radio
Ahh
Over you go
And the red now all the rivers flow
The poppies grow
Ride into the sunset
Fly into the sunset
And away they're blown
Ride into the sunset
Arrive into the sunset
And they're taken home
Open fire
Open fire
Open fire
And fire
Just arrived, the fire

It's very clearly about World War I.
All your friends are your fellow soldiers. As a soldier, you're told which side you have to fight on. You're forced to obey orders. You have no choice.
The ride into the sunset part is referring to the mass of people dying as they come over the trenches and get torn down by the enemy. It's doubled down on by the "into the fire" line. They're all getting slaughtered.
The 10 below, call come on the radio verse is the general giving orders. You're freezing in your trench. Over you go to face the enemy. Red the rivers flow is obviously pools of blood.
Poppies grow is a direct reference to "In Flanders Fields" - a poem about the red poppies that grew on the fields following the battles. It's the symbol for soldiers who have fallen in combat.
