Track 8 talks about Josh’s issues with his mental health saying that he hates that its hiding away in his mind, Josh claims he is southern gothic this could be a reference to the image that shows Josh in a cowboy hat and well the gothic part is pretty self explanatory.
[Chorus]
Haunted by my sins
Going 'til the wheels fall off, I ride
This cowboy needs helps 'cause I hate what's hiding in my mind
I'll be in the graveyard
Let my corpse rot, let the crows eat
Outlaw with a hundred grand on my bounty
I'm bringing out the Devil so you better stay watching
A little bit southern but I still stay gothic
[Verse]
The fear of death that motivated me again
I guess I make my best work when I'm threatened by the end
My health been getting worse and now my eyes are caving in
So if I end up dying, plеase just make the music livе, I'm
Agoraphobic, Hypochondriac, Bipolar, on the verge on Schizophrenia
My cranium been overcome by so much mania
I think my friends hate me even though they show me love
I know these thoughts are crazy
I'm a basket case, I probably need help
And if I die, the destination, man, it'll probably be Hell
But thats a life of another haunted cowboy
Just another kid that they said, wouldn’t amount boy
So I said fuck 'em now I'm living on my own turf
Whatever way I live that's my own terms
So when it's rough I just pick myself up and get to work
The reaper on my trail but I won't let him be first, yeah
[Chorus]
Haunted by my sins
Going 'til the wheels fall off, I ride
This cowboy needs helps 'cause I hate what's hiding in my mind
I'll be in the graveyard
Let my corpse rot, let the crows eat
Outlaw with a hundred grand on my bounty
I'm bringing out the Devil so you better stay watching
A little bit southern but I still stay gothic
[Outro]
And now my body fades away
The Devil takes control
And nothing else remains
Down this lonely road
