I think this is from the point of view of God.
Myles Kennedy has stated that ABIII is a loose concept-album about a character who has come to realize that everything he thought was absolute truth might not be. I think that's a reference to Kennedy's religious upbringing. In this song, I believe he is writing from the point of view of God, and what God has to say about this character's sudden lack of faith.
I'm not religious, by the way. And to be honest, up until I really sat down and thought about it in the context of the album's concept, I always equated this song to being about a relationship with someone who you have the best intentions for, but they turn and walk away from you regardless.
