Ownership of property may be private, collective, or common and the property may be objects, land/real estate or intellectual property. Determining ownership in law involves determining who has certain rights and duties over the property. These rights and duties, sometimes called a 'bundle of rights', can be separated and held by different parties.
The question of ownership reaches back to the ancient philosophers, Plato and Aristotle, who held different opinions on the subject. Plato (428/427BC-348/347BC) thought private property created divisive inequalities, while Aristotle (384BC-322BC) thought private property enabled people to receive the full benefit of their labor. Private property also circumvents what is now referred to as the “tragedy of the commons” problem, where people tend to degrade common property more than they do private property. While Aristotle justified the existence of private ownership, he left open questions of (1) how to allocate property between what is private and common and (2) how to allocate the private property within society.
The world's spinning 'round
And I can not escape
From this decadence
That we're living in
So we drink, 'til we forget ourselves
Then we find ourselves
Lost among everythings
I'm crying out loud
I feeling tired
I used to be proud
But I guess I've expired
Oh, I know It'd be wrong
Oh, I know It'd be wrong
But I can't stand to live alone
You're my flesh and bone
I wanna write you a song
I wanna take you home
I wanna be your own
And in the dawn
When I wake up again
Closer to the end
Than I've ever been
If I saw your face
I know we could escape
To another place where
Things could be sinking in
I'm crying out loud
I feeling tired
I used to be proud
But I guess I've expired
Oh, I know It'd be wrong
Oh, I know It'd be wrong
But I can't stand to live alone
You're my flesh and bone
I wanna move to Rome
Far away from home
Where you could be my own
I'm feeling tired...
I'm crying out loud
I guess I've expired
Oh, I know It'd be wrong
Oh, I know It'd be wrong
But I can't stand to live alone
You're my flesh and bone
I wanna write you a song
I wanna take you home
I wanna be your own
Be your own
