This makes sense. Especially considering that the main reference seems to be the song Houdini by Kate Bush, contained in the album The Dreaming whose cover is the artist with a key in her mouth ("with a kiss I'd pass the key").

Personally, I hope that this is not the case because that album and that song are too significant for me and I would experience it as a kind of intrusion lmao. I hate to be that kind of person who claims a certain "ownership" over an artist or work, but that's how I feel.

Are you sure it's this and not just... Harry Houdini that's the main inspiration?

I'm struck by the visual she shared, of the little key in her mouth.... It's true that this was rumored to happen in Houdini and his wife's performances (that she would pass him the key with a kiss so he could open the locks), but the image and its use as a concept in the context of a song that is also called Houdini leaves me thinking.
