Acrisius is right. This song is about a soldier.

here we go into the fight they’re back again the enemy look alive, watch out or actually look like you're alive, so people can help you

brother could refer to a brother at arms, a fellow soldier, or a real brother. Taking cover is done when you're in danger i.e. under fire

lie down in a field if you can they're on a field op look at the night sky searching for planes oh, where does it end? sometimes it hurts when you care about me saying he shouldn't care about the narrator because... but it’s going to hurt more when they take you away from me they're going to die.

I think that's enough evidence. Although the beauty of songs is that they can be interpreted in any way. I quite like the idea of a forbidden love.
