It's about a soldier torn between his morals and his obligation to his country. I would guess it's in reference to the first war in Iraq considering the date the album was released and the reference to the desert sand mound a burial ground. He wants to know when the time comes to kill is he a partner in crime (murder). He's ready to give his life for his country and he's asking God to forgive him for what he might have to do.
