This track is a giant glaring clue as to the biggest theme of the Blue Record.
"waves are screaming abraxan hymns"
Abraxas (or Abrasax), is a symbol/god of duality. Both good and evil. The theme is reiterated in 'Swollen and Halo' in the line "of god and beast." 'The Gnashing' also indicates the duality/Abaxas theme heavily.
As for this song, it seems to be about all the things revolving around a battle. Before, after, within and outside of the fight.
