about

I think like most people who listened to Blackstar, I was almost immediately enraptured with this song. I can't match his perspective or talents, for sure, so I tried to take a different tack altogether and made an arrangement entirely composed of analog synths--aside from my vocals...but then...the larynx IS arguably an analog synth. Whoa.

lyrics

Look up here, I'm in heaven
I've got scars that can't be seen
I've got drama, can't be stolen
Everybody knows me now

Look up here, man, I'm in danger
I've got nothing left to lose
I'm so high it makes my brain whirl
Dropped my cell phone down below
Ain't that just like me?

By the time I got to New York
I was living like a king
There I'd used up all my money
I was looking for your ass

This way or no way
You know, I'll be free
Just like that bluebird
Now, ain't that just like me?
Oh, I'll be free
Just like that bluebird
Oh, I'll be free
Ain't that just like me?
