The song is part of the concept album "Avatar Country." The album, as a whole, centers on the King of Avatar Country. The metaphor basically equates the band's music as a country, which means the King would represent the leader or representative of the band's music.
So this song refers to people who join the army in Avatar Country. The people don't know who or what they're fighting ("I don't know why we're fighting"), but they go anyways to defend the motherland. The metaphor speaks to the loyalty of the people of Avatar Country, which symbolically speaks to the loyalty of Avatar's fans
