I think it's just a soldier either coming back from a tour in a warzone or a soldier who has deserted. He promised to come home safely but is finding that it's taking much longer than he had hoped. The locks having changed when he has returned meaning that he is too late and who he was returning to has moved on because of the time he has taken to get back there.
