Seven Names Lyrics
Here, I can breathe again
I left it all behind to watch the days go by
Now I can breathe again
I choose to never let go
So take your time, concentrate
Know the clock is ticking, don't be late
Stand your ground, do your worst
Fragile frame, minor world
Take your time, prove your worth
Don't look behind, you'll make it worse
Why won't you forgive me?
I was so alone, soaking to the bone
How could you forgive me?
Was I pitiful, unforgivable?
Unholiest
Irreverent
Immoral son
Ungodly one
I left it all behind to watch the days go by
I choose to never let go
So take your time, concentrate
Know the clock is ticking, don't be late
Fragile frame, minor world
Take your time, prove your worth
Don't look behind, you'll make it worse
I was so alone, soaking to the bone
How could you forgive me?
Was I pitiful, unforgivable?
Irreverent
Immoral son
Ungodly one

Definitely a song speaking of his relationship with God, as there are seven holy names of God, referenced by the title.
It sounds to me as if he's looking back on his life from the afterlife, advising the listener to live life as fully, to enjoy the time as it goes, knowing that life must end eventually, and to not look back on the past.
However, it seems a tad grim at the end, as it seems he's pleading with a God he didn't believe in, asking for forgiveness, wondering what he did that was so unforgivable so as to prevent the God's grace.
The final lines seem to say that simply by living an atheist life, he was seen as an unforgivable child of God.
