"Oh no, not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world
I laughed and shook his hand
And made my way back home
I searched for form and land
For years and years I roamed
I gazed a gazeless stare
At all the millions here
I must have died alone
;A long, long time ago"
- Lyrics from The Man Who Sold the World, 1970, David Bowie.
