I think this song may not have been meant to be written about God, however I can draw my own connections and conclusions that definately have God in it. This song is written from the human perspective. He puts God in a human form (smoking a cigarette.) He is questioning God why he was too late. Why he took everything from him. In our eyes, it may seem like He was too late. In reality, it was our own fault. We weren't looking in the right places. He was there the whole time. Personally I find myself looking in the wrong places to find peace and happiness, but when we realize that God has been there the whole time, we just need to take the effort to find Him.
