This song has a VERY atheistic feel that I just love.
To me it is a person who is dying, reflecting on the good times, thinking about death, getting angry at god and then realizing that there was no god at all, she wasted her life believing in a fairy tale and now she is going to die.
"Only God says "jump"
So I say "in good time"
Cause if he ever saw it
It was through these eyes of mine
And if he ever suffered
it was me who did his crying "
To me this is her saying that god is about as real as she makes it. That it only exists as an idea, only exists inside her head. Its her eyes who sees, it is her face that the tears fall down, not gods. She realized that god is nothing more than an expression of herself, a crutch that is pointless"
