You ran to the altar, said another prayer
It was a black year
In the Church of Saint Anne
Oh father, your eyes could heal the sick
Yeah, heal the sick
A twisted smile on his face
Oh father, God left you for dead
You ran to the altar but God was never there
Oh father, betrayed by your own
Oh father, no one could ever forget
When the miracles began
In the Church of Saint Anne
It was a black year
For the Church of Saint Anne
Oh father, did Satan take your soul?
In the Church of Saint Anne
It was a black year
They found him in the tower
So they threw you out and stoned you down
Your congregation said, "You lost 'God's Will'"
Stoned you down to the ground
In the Church of Saint Anne
For the Church of Saint Anne
Oh father, the night your eyes went black
It was a black year
When the miracles began
The sick got sicker and the well got ill
Hangin' from the bell
