“BSC” stands for “Batshit Crazy,” and is the 12th song on Maisie Peter’s second studio album The Good Witch.

The song is a cathartic expression of heartbreak and the aftermath of a tumultuous relationship. Maisie uses her lyrical prowess to blend wit with anguish, painting a picture of someone who—on the surface—seems to be handling a breakup with humor and grace but is inwardly grappling with intense emotional turmoil.

The verses of “BSC” unfold the narrative of a love gone sour, where the acts of cutting hair and taking space symbolize the distancing moves often made at the end of a relationship. Maisie’s lyrics delve into the complexities of a partner’s mixed signals— loving gestures followed by emotional withdrawal—which leaves her character feeling unstable and discarded. The use of vivid imagery and references, like Annie Hall and iconic figures from horror literature, Kathy Bates and Stephen King, serve to heighten the song’s dramatic and slightly unhinged tone, illustrating the depth of her emotional instability.

The song captures the essence of pretending to be okay when one is anything but.
