Hannah told me change that lock and key
Sift your soul - get down to your knees
This is not my sky
This is not my sky
This is not my sky
The devil searched for love and so it seems
Carry down the ghost and bury deeds
This is not my sky, this is not my sky
This is not my sky
This is not my sky
This is not my sky
The is heads down and a mad uncle
Someone said have you seen that guy
On the street with a loud cut and
A black eye, giving love away with
A bad smile
Bury my heart at the broken knee
Dig my mind - treasure my home need
This is not my sky
Not my sky
This is not my sky
This is not my sky
This is not my sky
This is not my sky
This is not my sky
Give it back (not sure)
This is not my sky
This is not my sky
This is not my sky
This is not my sky

    This is a lovely song, although I have no idea what it's going on about. I always thought he was singing "this is not my style" as well, although perhaps not.

    It's "this is heads down" rather than "the is heads down"

    My Interpretation

    Is it possible that the song may be about rape, perpetrated by the main character's uncle?

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
