God is not in his heaven

As he has lost his way
And we’re all his figments 
of his imagination
Lost in the hidden 
sea of sorrows 
were shadows dwell
We wander into infinity 
Following trails of cosmic dust
Finite and afraid 
We sit in wonder and despair 
We deny our lust
For god is not in his house 
Nor on his throne 
of light and shadow, as shades parade 
He is here next to me, as quiet as a mouse 
Playing chess with angels and demons 
Only a candle marks our time, our movements
To the metronome 
I feel my soul roam
In the darkness far above 
It is dusty in white
Shimmering arms of grace
I know the fine filaments of time
Like intricate lace
For he has forgotten 
Our face, he is not in his heaven 
As we have lost our way!
