Keys To the Kingdom
Unveiling the Mystical Journey: Keys to a Haunted Harmony
Lyrics
I was handed keys to the kingdom
I was given a significant opportunity or authority.
I was given a haunted guitar
I received a guitar with a troubled or mysterious history.
And I heard it sing
The guitar emitted sounds, expressing its experiences through music.
Every song it ever wrote and them some
The guitar conveyed not only its own songs but also additional stories.
I was holding onto the wheel
I was in control of a sturdy Lincoln car, likely symbolizing stability.
Of this Lincoln made out of steel
The car was made of steel, emphasizing its durability.
In Arizona
This scene takes place in Arizona, beneath a painted sky.
Underneath the painted sky and then some
Reflecting on the vastness of the sky and surroundings.
And I drank the water
I consumed something transformative or enlightening.
And I saw the master's eyes
I witnessed the gaze or perspective of a master or influential figure.
I heard Elvis singin' 'bout Jesus
Elvis, through song, explored themes related to Jesus.
I saw daddy, Norma Jean too
Referencing personal and familial connections, like seeing one's father and Norma Jean (possibly referring to Marilyn Monroe).
Oh what a view
Expressing the beauty of the observed scene.
Everyone I've ever loved and then some
Reflecting on the profound impact of everyone deeply cared for.
And I drank the water
Another instance of consuming something enriching or fulfilling.
And it was paradise
The consumed substance or experience is likened to paradise.
I was handed keys to the kingdom
Reiteration of being given a significant opportunity or authority.
I was given a haunted guitar
Reiteration of having a guitar with a troubled or mysterious history.
And it made me sing
The haunted guitar inspired the speaker to sing.
Every song it ever wrote and then some
Similar to line 4, the guitar conveyed extensive musical stories.
