David Bowie – The Man Who Sold the World Lyrics 20 years ago
I might be way off here but i think its about someone who lost himself thru drugs or by any other means but then got his act together.

" thought you died alone, a long long time ago

Oh no, not me
I never lost control"

for me its about someone cleaning up their act when everyone had given up on them and wrote them off.
