If you need somebody, call my name
  If you want someone, you can do the same
  If you want to keep something precious
  You got to lock it up and throw away the key
  If you want to hold onto your possession
  Don't even think about me
    If you love somebody, set them free
    If it's a mirror you want, just look into my eyes
  Or a whipping boy, someone to despise
  Or a prisoner in the dark
  Tied up in chains you just can't see
  Or a beast in a gilded cage
  That's all some people ever want to be
    If you love somebody, set them free
    You can't control an independent heart
  Can't tear the one you love apart
  Forever conditioned to believe that we can't live
  We can't live here and be happy with less
  So many riches, so many souls
  Everything we see we want to possess
    If you need somebody, call my name
  If you want someone, you can do the same
  If you want to keep something precious
  You got to lock it up and throw away the key
  If you want to hold onto your possession
  Don't even think about me
    If you love somebody, set them free
