E          F#m          C#m
This is the thing about people
    B                 F#m
You never really know what's inside
E               F#m             C#m
Somewhere in the soul there's a secret
   B                   F#m
Hysteria grows where it was invited
E          F#m                C#m
This is the thing thing about fiction
    B                        F#m
How everything feeds on it's paranoia
E          F#m           C#m
Wrapping it all up in tradition
    B                      F#m
Now fill up the cup, go and drink your poison
[Chorus]
   A         E              B               F#m
My love is a witness for the loss of your innocence
               A           E
So give it all up, give it distance
        B                 F#m
Live it up for the path of resistance
[Verse 2]
E          F#m           C#m
This is the thing about confusion
    B                 F#m
You never really know what you'll find
E                  F#m          C#m
You tell me what it means to be human
    B                          F#m
The freedom you seek is to free your mind
[Chorus]
   A         E               B               F#m
My love is a witness for the loss of your innocence
               A           E
So give it all up, give it distance
        B                 F#m
Live it up for the path of resistance
[Verse 3]
E          F#m          C#m
This is the thing about evil
    B                 F#m
You never really know where it's hiding
E                 F#m        C#m
Find your phantom in the cathedral
    B                          F#m
The more you search for it, the less you'll find
[Chorus]
   A         E              B               F#
My love is a witness for the loss of your innocence
               A           E
So give it all up, give it distance
        B                 F#
Live it up for the path of resistance
   A         E              B               F#
My love is a witness for the loss of your innocence
               A           E
So give it all up, give it distance
        B                  C#m
Live it up for the path of resistance
