It's more of a warning about what the life of a war hero can be like. You go in, fight, and win glory for your side, but there's always a chance you'll slip and fall. I really think the singer is talking to someone older than himself; this war hero has fought for a long time, and is wanting that one last battle. The singer is warning him that there really is no glory in dying.
