Bay Faction Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That I'm currently having sex with so
It's safe to say we don't talk anymore
Unless of course were having sex then I'm
Watching her from the back seat put on makeup
And get her shirt on right
I'm pretty sure this isn't what my dad had in mind the year before
When he made me go to college in the south shore
And I'm wasted like Friday night
When I'll be wasted it's all a cycle a vicious cycle and I
I'm just petrified
So I called the girl
That I'm currently having sex with and I said I loved her
She came over that night
We started having sex and it felt fine
Up until she fucking left and I realized
That i tell a damn good lie
It's tuesday
And I'm wasted like Friday night
When I'll be wasted it's all a cycle a vicious cycle and I
I'm just petrified
I'm petrified when I'm 30
Buy a .22
Waste myself in the back of her Camry
Put it to the back of my mouth and scream out your name
Pull the trigger and realize that the seats arent easy to clean.
Cuz it'll be a Tuesday
And I'm wasted like Friday night
When I'll be wasted it's all a cycle a vicious cycle and I
I'm just petrified
The lyrics to Bay Faction's "Sasquatch .22" paint a bleak picture of a young man who is lost and trapped in a cycle of self-destructive behavior. He confesses that he is catching feelings for the girl that he is currently having sex with, but admits that they don't talk unless they are having sex. In a moment of desperation, he calls her and tells her that he loves her, but ultimately realizes that he is lying to himself and to her.
The singer appears to be struggling with his identity and his place in the world. He admits that his father sent him to college in the south shore, but he doesn't seem to care about his studies or his future. He is consumed by his self-destructive habits and his fear of the future. The final lines of the song are the most chilling, as the singer contemplates suicide with a .22 caliber gun in the back of his lover's Camry.
Overall, "Sasquatch .22" is a haunting exploration of self-destructive behavior, loneliness, and the desperate search for meaning in a world that seems to offer none.

It's safe to say we don't talk anymore
We do not communicate unless we're engaging in sex
Unless of course were having sex then I'm
Except for the times when we are physically intimate
Watching her from the back seat put on makeup
Observing her applying cosmetics while seated behind her
And get her shirt on right
Adjusting her garment for a proper fit
I'm pretty sure this isn't what my dad had in mind the year before
I doubt this was my father's intention when he sent me to college last year
When he made me go to college in the south shore
Sending me to attend college on the southern shore
Doesn't care that I go to college it's tuesday
It's a Tuesday, my father doesn't seem to care that I am a college student
And I'm wasted like Friday night
Despite it being a weekday, I am heavily intoxicated
When I'll be wasted it's all a cycle a vicious cycle and I
It's a never-ending cycle of getting drunk and feeling anxious
I'm just petrified
I am experiencing great fear and dread
So I called the girl
I contacted the woman
That I'm currently having sex with and I said I loved her
I expressed my love to the woman I'm currently sexually involved with
She came over that night
She arrived at my place later that evening
We started having sex and it felt fine
We proceeded to engage in sexual intercourse and it felt satisfactory
Up until she fucking left and I realized
Until she abruptly left and I came to the realization
That i tell a damn good lie
That I am skilled at deception
I'm petrified when I'm 30
I will still be experiencing great fear when I am 30 years old
Buy a .22
Procure a type of firearm known as a .22
Waste myself in the back of her Camry
Commit suicide by shooting myself in the back of her Toyota Camry
Put it to the back of my mouth and scream out your name
Place the gun barrel in the back of my mouth and yell your name
Pull the trigger and realize that the seats arent easy to clean.
Fire the gun and become aware that the car seats will be difficult to clean afterward
Cuz it'll be a Tuesday
Since it is a Tuesday in this hypothetical scenario
And I'm wasted like Friday night
Despite this being a weekday, I am still heavily intoxicated
When I'll be wasted it's all a cycle a vicious cycle and I
It will always be a cycle of excessive drinking and fearful thoughts
I'm just petrified
I am experiencing great fear and dread
