I love the attention to detail. The "my baby's got a gun" part is sung by a girl. It shows that it's not actually pop singing that. It's her imagining what she's gonna do to him and his reaction to that. She didnt actually do anything. Truly a masterpiece

I've got a sneaking suspicion her daddy has a gun

[@ssoaphie]

isn’t the entire song sung by a girl? i always assumed the singer for mother mother was a girl

[@lotofolive8856]

A lot of people are saying that this song is the daughter avenged her lover and found peace in having pieces of herself like her father, but I think that this song is showing the fact that continuing the cycle of violence creates you into the monster you've been trying to destroy. The smoke and fire represents the confusion and cloying guilt that comes with addiction and the repercussions of it, whether it be violence or something else. They were both caught in the smoke and both succumbed to the violence of it. The long john's represent the cycle continuing, both wearing the clothes reflecting thier likeness. But it is up to opinion, and the song is wonderful, analysis or not.

[@333wheeler]

Yes she morphed into a likeness her Father afterwards .. That's my take on it as well..

[@ellyisjelly1504]

I think the message is that she became the thing she swore to destroy in the end, which is symbolised by her wearing the long johns so i totally agree with your analysis

[@plainlyabrick]

isnt it both

[@beardbeardedbeardsbeardedh9374]

I saw that as her seeing what she would become if she shot her dad and deciding against it in the end, breaking the cicle.

[@UtielTheHopeful]

@@beardbeardedbeardsbeardedh9374 I also think so, especially since she leaves the house in the end, leaving both the gun and long johns there. If she truly became like her father, she probably would stay inside, completely replacing him.

[@lilpetz500]

Right?? I love that it also sounds like conscious, building dread rather than the alert fear she was surprised with in the first song. Like, the "baby's got a gun" line feels like the Dad knowing that he's in for revenge at any point for what he did, or almost like her describing how she could theoretically inflict that same fear back on him like he did back then, but with a layer of "getting what's coming to him"

[@tesla5052]

wow y'all. i cried unexpectedly. How can you portray the epic often years-long if not decades-long path of healing from abuse in under 4 mins? brilliant. it doesnt have to be a father daughter relationship this could be a metaphor for any kind of trauma. 10/10

[@BasicallyDuncan]

I actually think the ‘revenge’ shown in this story is her outliving her father, after all the place is abandoned and the only physical manifestation of the father is in hallucinations. Also the constant imagery of the Long-Jon’s burning in the fire could also support this, her now wearing those Long-Jon’s now shows she’s now I’m power of her life now that her father has passed

[@cassyy9011]

[@audri1273]

@@ismeylia3501 what are you talking about?

[@acedianPianist]

@@audri1273 It's entirely symbolic - she didn't 'kill' him. In fact, the song flat-out says "whatever happened to pop?" - he took his ass back to the crack shack, he's probably dead already, hella OD'd after five years. His daughter was going down the same spiral, but she cracked and admitted enough was enough, she 'killed' the influence her pops had on her after realizing that she had to face off against what he was to her - what power he had over her life. She had to crack, she had to kill the memory of pop to move on. And if you want me to be real - the music video has huge therapeutic notes of truth to it; there's a technique in gestalt therapy called 'the empty chair' where you talk out a dialogue with someone, or some part of yourself, that you imagine exists in an empty chair in the room; often because you physically can't - either they're in your head, or it's incredibly unsafe, or the other party is dead/missing/inaccessible. Going back to a place of hurt and doing just that is a pretty raw way to do it, but. Either way, in her case it works and she gains control of her life, rather than falling entirely into the spiral and cycle; the long-johns are sort of a two-fold acknowledgement of both the power she's gained back and the potential to become her father later on in life if left unacknowledged. Because, unfortunately, we have a tendency to behave and treat people in similar ways as to how we've been exposed to our parents' behavior. It's always a struggle to work through, and a lot of people aren't self-aware of these behaviors.

I'm gonna try my hand at interpreting this because I can't help myself and this is a song and video I wish I'd had years ago, when I was deeper in the recovery process and desperately needed catharsis. This entire song feels like the cycle of abuse, and finally breaking your mind free of it and the anger that comes from it. And I think a lot of people are missing the fact that while she has the gun with her in the beginning, she leaves it behind by the end, along with the long john's. It's up completely to interpretation whether or not she actually shot her father and burned the shack down, or if she just fantasized about it. I'm leaning towards the latter, since we see several different scenarios where she shoots him and the blood from Hayloft I might've been from her cradling her lover's body, but to me it kinda doesn't matter. Either way, she feels the rage of not wanting, but *needing* to do it. This sequel feels angrier, more primal, with short phrases ("You die! You die!") and screaming, and that's what abuse will do to you over years. It will break you down and push you past your boundaries. You may be a shy and quiet person who wouldn't harm a fly, but with the right buttons pushed you will scream obscenities and plot murder. And you will be horrified at what you've become. I don't think the girl actually took the father's place, at least not permanently. I think she tried to escape her trauma (drugs, driving away, running away in the first video), and here we see her revisiting it and finally facing it down. She is tired of feeling like she can never escape her father's judgement (father staring her down while she cowers), and she is tired of all this confused rage (smoke, imagining herself as her father, fantasizing using the gun). At the end we see her father wearing a different outfit, not in his pajamas. And he looks remorseful, guilt-filled, lonely. (Edit: I'm thinking now that maybe this is a representation not of the actual father, but the parts of her that feel infected by him. She no longer wants to hurt, she just doesn't want to be hurt anymore.) We see her examining her hands like her lover once did - maybe a metaphor for her looking back on her actions, seeing if she's red-handed (Edit: or even a metaphor for relearning to love herself and see herself as her lover once did). And she leaves the gun, the long john's, and her home life behind. She's not a bad kid, but she had to crack. And she's remembering that she isn't a bad person, she isn't her father, and she's able to move on again. Thematically, if you want another song like this, I'd recommend "The Killing Type" by Amanda Palmer, also super cathartic and exploring the idea of not being a bad person but still wanting to do bad things.

[@KcdoesStuff]

Wonderful interpretation

[@hyperfox0934]

Oh this was beautiful. Likening it to "the Killing Type" is actually a really useful comparison too- good job my friend!

[@muhiptezcan6649]

Beautifully put. As I was watching the video, I felt like it was about breaking the cycle of "generational trauma". She realizes if she follows the path she'll end up becoming like him, so she burns the past and leaves instead. Also reminded me of Nietzsche's words: “He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby becomes a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you."

[@scarletvampyrum]

[@DraeneiPecs]

The amount of people who misinterpret this masterpiece in the comments as being about revenge or a “villain arc” depress me. It isn’t about the joy of killing her traumatizer, in fact it’s about the opposite. It’s about breaking the cycle of violence and anger. The video shows her imagining killing him in a lot of different ways, but also has her imagining him moving in the exact ways she was, drinking like he did. She realized that killing him makes her into him. So she drives off, leaving him alive but terrified. She leaves the gun behind, and that’s the entire message of the song. Leave the gun behind. It’s beautiful.

[@totallynotyourstalker1782]

"she had to kill pop" 💀

[@DraeneiPecs]

@@totallynotyourstalker1782 I don’t think that means what you think that means. The way I understand that line, it’s her inner conflict saying that “I have to do it!” rather than “she killed Pop and she had to”. Or in other words, it isn’t that she did and had to, it’s that she felt that she had to. Isn’t the English language fun?

[@Mini-jm2ec]

I love your interpretation. But there is one little thing. When she leaves the gun behind, pop is NOT there. at 3:08 the camera pans and you see the gun alone, with no chair beside it. At 3:10 however, pops is seemingly sat right next to the gun in a chair that wasn't there in the previous shot. I think she DID do it, but now regrets it and comes back often to channel that guilt and frustration. Sitting in his chair acts as a sort of fufilment for that. If this is actually the case then that's really unfortunate, I prefer your interpretation WAY more but the abscence of pop in the panning shot is really bugging me.

[@namyiu7448]

[@svftystrange]

real

[@vliase8451]

Personally, I think that this video was really about continuing the cycle of violence . I think that although she was doing it for revenge she had realised that she was becoming more like her Dad and even the lyrics "she's not a bad kid but she had to do it" really makes it more clear that it was her way of coming to terms of what she had actually done and that she was seeping into the cycle of violence but even after she did what she did she still left the house. She may be somewhat like her father but not everyone has to be. I think that was the message I had gotten from this. Its up to your own interpretation though:)

[@saloirsrain8224]

I’m pretty sure pops is still alive but was just sleeping when she tried to kill him all the ways that she killed him where in her mind. Knowing that just killing pop would just make her the same as him she decides not to do it and leave the gun behind. But that just me I guess. This thought does take inspiration from another comment and for me made it make more sense.

[@Faulk425]

@@saloirsrain8224 I thought once that guy died then she ran away then came back with a shotgun and killed him, then she got lost in drugs as the song says and now she's going back to get closure, then when she is back she is overloaded and finds on of his bottles and starts drinking which makes her start hallucinating and she sees herself becoming more like him, the mirroring and stuff, so she decides to leave and doesn't take the gun, while in hayloft 1 the dad does take the gun, so I think that shows her denying the route her dad went down

[@tinashesadazi4336]

She had to do it... She really wanted to kill pop... But when she arrived pop wasn't there. She started hallucinating pop and went through three phases: being afraid of him, being angry at him and fantasising all the ways she could have killed him (becoming the "pop" she once feared herself as shown from the mirroring of her and pop) to the last phase of her reaching acceptance... letting go of her anger and need to take vengeance on pop maybe even forgiving him (hence why pop was crying as she was leaving him). She leaves the gun and as she walks out and as the camera pans we again see that pop wasn't sitting next to her and there was no chair at all. Infact, in the beginning the house had been closed with the door nailed from the outside. From hayloft 1 pop went back to the house but he might have left or died within the 5 years.

[@apartmentghost]

As someone who has trauma stemming from my father who also drank a lot, the video really resonated with me. It captured my feelings of resentment, anger, fear and sadness very well. I remember feeling scared I'd fall into the same habits my dad has, feeling trapped and like I wanted to get back at him for what I went through as a child. The last few scenes where it looks like she decides to say her piece and then walks away, leaving the shotgun behind is so powerful. I interpreted it as she realizes she doesn't want to be consumed by her resentment and continue the cycle, instead standing up for herself and moving on. I've watched this video so many times, and I cry every single time I watch it, it's honestly a masterpiece

[@gobboyboyrah]

I seriously interpret this as something to do with abusive parents / families and breaking the cycle. Just the lyrics of the song contrasting with the contents of the video. It's almost like we have a preconceived notion of what shes gonna do before she does it.We, as an audience, expect her to be violent and shoot her dad, just as he acted violent towards her partner. It just goes to show the cycle of abuse and how people thing there's no hope in kids who have been traumatised, they're just gonna end up worse off anyway. But she proves this wrong. I also really loved in the first few shots, the way she barrels in with the gun , like yes That would have been so easy, she could have just shot him and been over with it. But she doesn't. Just the scenes of her in the chair and drinking the alchohol- she doesn't want to become her father, yet in a way she does. It's the way her father cowers in fear because he EXPECTS her to shoot him- because he knows that's what she's been taught from him. It's like everyone expects her to continue the violence and hurt and take vengeance on him. The way that she takes the gun that she had and returns it, almost as if she's handing the baton back to him. telling him that she's not gonna continue this. I also really loved the scenes that reminded us that she was an abused child. Yes she's facing off her father, but she's also rexperiencing all the things she's done. The scene where she's in a maze of laundry, the huge face peering through the window etc. All of these scenes where she's scared and on the verge of tears remind us she's not some crazy unrealistic protagonist who's gonna shoot her dad in some epic revenge, she's a character and a person. And as much as she hates her dad, she fears him, and probably also related to him on some level. It just completely radiated the levels of complexity in the relationship they have. The first time I watched it all I could think was about a child breaking the cycle of pain and trauma, breaking the abuse. She was expected to turn out like her dad, taking revenge on him. But she faces her fears and gives him his gun the fuck back. Basically cutting him off not just in character but metaphorically. She drives away with a new life and leaving it all behind. For the first time in 5 years she faces off her dad, but not in the way we would expect. She basically takes her life back and moves on. And it's the fact that her leaving is the hardest thing she could have done. It would have been easy to end his life and take what he took. But instead she takes the hard route, and takes on her trauma face on, and then leaves better off. Just the line "a shot in the heart doesn't make it un break" To me that represents even if she shoots him, its not gonna make her feel any better about the things she's gone through or the loss she faced . I was just obsessed with the symbolism in this video the whole way theough - well done, seriously. it was amazing

[@candicraveingcloude2822]

To me this song can be seen in multiple ways I'm going to list two-ish ways this can be viewed. 1. Bringing closure with negative people, including family, even if it means cutting them off. 2a. Contuing the cycle of negativity in a family, as in Hayloft 1 it was the father having the gun, now it's passed on to the child, who now ends up continuing this cycle, she wasn't bad, but she's now responsible for carrying the weight of what their father did and what she did in response whatever that may be. If left unchecked the cycle may continue 2b. Ending the cycle of negativity in the family. Again in hayloft one it's the father, who is responsible, now the child, now adult, carries the responsibility, but our Protagonist t is now unlearning the negative things her father instilled into her through many things, so that she can take her responsibility as an adult, and not repeat this cycle, hence the lyric "she had to kill pop", being taken in a symbolic sense.

[@candicraveingcloude2822]

@@cHAOTICeXOTIC910 2a is the negativity cycle continuing meaning the protagonist now takes the role of pop if left unchecked. Sorry if I didn't make it clear.

[@Marispider]

I prefer interpreting it as 2b. It's possible she might have even continued the cycle of abuse for a bit, since she had the gun, but by the end of the song she's left the gun in the house, and left all of it behind. It seems like she's finally revisiting her trauma, letting herself think through it, and then moving on.

[@brokengirlsrus]

I love how they made a sequel to Hayloft and made it such a damn good example of the cycle of violence, and how sometimes, you have to be the one to break it. I really don't think she killed Pa, even though the video and lyrics suggest it. Her going back to the abandoned house and hallucinating Pa, envisioning her revenge fantasy, burning everything down was just that- a fantasy. What she did kill was the violent and angry part of herself, which we have to assume she got from/learned from her father. Because while she is the product of her parent, she is choosing not to become him by picking up the pieces and moving on. I myself have horrible, sick, sad people for parents. I made the healthiest choice for me and cut them out of my life and I had to accept that I wouldn't get closure, or an apology, or what I really wanted- sweet, sweet revenge. Instead I just did the best thing for myself and left them behind, along with the traits I inherited and learned from them.
