Em D           Em D
Despair has a face
    C          G/B            Am
And all these wounds remain unhealed
Em D                 Em  D
Bless the killed and enslaved
C        G/B                   Am
Our own hearts are our love’s will
  G/B          C             D
Thrilled to start all over again

Chorus:
Em                       D
Crawl down dead lovers’ lane
Em                     D
The maze of memories stained
     C         D    Em    G      C
And suck the blood right out of my heart.

Fear has a name
Written on unhallowed ground with dead leaves
Those words never fail
To feed the hunger that dreams
Our needs beyond God's grasp

Chorus:
Scream out love's name in vain
Embrace the pain again
And lose yourself alone in the dark
On Dead Lovers' Lane

Scream out love's name in vain
Embrace the pain again
And lose yourself alone in the dark
And suck the blood right out of my heart

Dead Lovers' Lane
Right out of my heart
Dead Lovers' Lane
