Not all One Republic songs have to do with love, I don't think this one has any romance to it. It's simply about life, having ups and downs, facing obstacles and overcoming them.
The "There isn't a flag I'd wave" part, I think he is saying he is never taking a side, although it's hard to connect with the meaning.
"Right, right, right; right, left, right": At first I thought was just for the rhythm, but I think it's about how things don't always go smoothly as they should(right, left, right, left) but sometimes the road gets bumpy and we take time to straighten out problems, so we don't move on to the "left" for some time.
The "I'd sink us to swim" part I still don't understand. Can someone clarify?
It could be about life but the beginning it sounds like he is referring to one person, saying that their relationship wasn't wrong.

For those days we felt like a mistake,
Those times when love's what you hate
Somehow
We keep marchin on
For those days we felt like a mistake,
Those times when love's what you hate
Somehow
We keep marchin on
For those nights that i couldn't be there,
I've made it harder to know that you know
That somehow
We'll keep movin on

I've made it harder to know that you know
That somehow

I also think that this part of the song is when he is saying that they have seen relationships not work. They've seen relationships go through the same thing that they are going through maybe, but they're not the same as the rest and they'll get through it.
For those doubts that swirl all around us
For those lives that tear at the seams
We know
Were not what we've seen

For the "I'd sink us to swim" part, I think it means that he would be willing to go through really difficult times (to "sink") as long as it meant later, they'd "swim" and be happy and things would be better.

I also think it isn't about relationship. It just about life. We will encounter many difficulties as long as alive. However, we still need to go on.

I think the "I'd sink us to swim" means that you have to put yourself down to be able to go up sometimes.
