I am pretty sure it's about child molestation. In the beginning you can hear children's laughter.
"Unholy, so vile
...
One more sacred alibi
...
It’s you that should be crucified"
A priest/pastor does inappropriate things with children. People have trusted them because they have a sacred alibi (priest). Jesus died for our sins, but the sinning priest is the one who should be sacrificed.
"What you did to them has nearly
Torn us all apart"
The community trusted the priest and now that the lie has been seen through the community is falling apart.
"The broken, how they cry
They only gave you heart and mind
How can you justify?
They loved you
Now father, don’t deny
You took them like a sacrifice
We finally know the truth about you"
Further supports my theory. The children (and their families) trusted the priest but he let them down by doing unholy things to them.
