Keystone
Sara kendall Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
must've gotten caught up in all the madness
Swept over in green,
now I'm layin' dispersed in the tall green grasses
Nothin' to rebuild now that you're gone,
can't stand as tall as I used to be
Below there's not much to do or see,
you were not what you seemed
Keystone heard of, but never seen
Sara Kendall's song Keystone is a deeply introspective piece that explores the aftermath of a failed relationship. The opening lines, "I've sunk down so deep, must've gotten caught up in all the madness," paint a picture of someone who has succumbed to their emotions and is struggling to find a way out. The use of the word 'madness' suggests that the singer recognizes the destructive nature of their actions but feels powerless to stop them.
The following lines describe the singer as being "swept over in green" and "dispersed in the tall green grasses." This metaphorical language is reminiscent of nature and suggests that the singer has lost their sense of self in the aftermath of the failed relationship. They are no longer standing tall and feel as though they have nothing left to rebuild. The line "you were not what you seemed" adds an extra layer to the song, hinting that the relationship was built on false pretenses and that the singer feels deceived.
Towards the end of the song, the line "Keystone heard of, but never seen" leaves the listener with a sense of longing and unfulfilled potential. A keystone is a crucial element of an arch that keeps everything else in place, and the fact that it is "heard of, but never seen" suggests that the singer is missing an important piece of their life that could help to bring them back together. Overall, this song is a poignant reflection on the struggles of moving on from a difficult relationship, and the challenges of rebuilding oneself in the aftermath.

I've sunk down so deep
Must have gotten caught up in all the madness

Now I'm laying dispersed in the tall green grasses
Nothing to rebuild now that you're gone
Can't stand as tall as I used to be

You were not what you seemed
Keystone, head of but never seen
I was left in between
Keystone, head of but never seen
I was left in between
Caught caught up in a dream ya
You were not what you seemed
As much as you pursue
I should have saw you start succumbing
And you did not stay true
And I never really saw it coming
And your weight held my body as one
I depended on the fate of an archway leaning
And now I decompose into the evening
You were not what you seemed
Keystone, head of but never seen
I was left in between
Keystone, head of but never seen
I was left in between
Caught caught up in a dream ya
You were not what you seemed
It pulled you, it pulled you
The farther that it pulled you
It pulled you it pulled you
The farther it pulled you
The more you really withdrew
Your intentions were untrue
It pulled you it pulled you
Keystone, head of but never seen
I was left in between
Keystone, head of but never seen
I was left in between
Caught caught up in a dream ya
You were not what you seemed
