“All the Best Cowboys Have Daddy Issues” is about the character’s decision to drink and eventually commit suicide.

This song leads into the instrumental “Negative Space” and picks up the story on “The Priest and the Matador”.

The song title is also a direct reference to an early episode of Lost In the episode, Jack fights back against Christian, his father, in an effort to forge his own path and not make the same mistakes as him.

Occasionally Buddy will write about his father.
