Peter Sinfield's website, songsouponsea, includes the meaning of the lyrics for it as well as the other tracks on this album, archived.
While it is an instrumental, Sinfield went on to say, on the title and its sections, it's about the death of this crumbling world as it descends into a hellish storm that only keeps building and destroying what was. However, in this destruction, there is a rebirth at the end, which brings peace. This end flows perfectly into the final track on the album's original release, Peace - An End.
