    This song is like a knife piercing right through the chalices around my heart. I know this sounds more ludicrous than sincere, but every time I hear anything by Molina, I am overcome with sadness at this beautiful man's untimely passing - to such a point that, to quote Steve Albini's (or rather, Shellac's) Squirrel Song, we'll be lucky if I don't bust out crying. Molina is simply one of the greats, period. And I am lucky to have had, and continue to have, his music in my life.

    Probably one of the best songs from the century...and so many people even don't know it...

    Incredible how a shitty VCR recording can capture the magic - so much better than the studio version - stunning!

    I miss Jason, i was never into this sort of music and XX years ago in Japan i accidentally listened to Songs:Ohia and fell in love. It's sad that his gone, it's beautiful that his music persists. RIP

    This breaks my heart.. levels of talent and genius.. his voice is sad because he was so about being REAL.. i truly hope he knew how amazing he was :( Rest in Peace Dear One. There's no one else like you.

      Jason and the band were amazing. I saw a show just before moving to San Francisco. I ended up knowing his wife through work and she is awesome as well. His alcoholism is not anyone's fault. Unfortunately, it is an awful thing to struggle with and most artists have mental illness and have created things to be treasured. So in behalf of his family and widow, I thank him and them for loving him.

    Lyrics
    While you was gone you must have done a lot of favors
    You got a whole lot of things I don't think that you could ever have paid for
    While you've been busy crying about my past mistakes
    I've been busy trying to make a change
    Baby, make a ...
    I've been riding with the ghost
    I've been doing whatever she told me
    I've been looking door to door to see
    If there was someone who'd hold me
    And I never met a single one who didn't see through me
    None of them would love me if they thought they might lose me
    Unless I made a change
    See I ain't getting better, I am only getting behind
    I'm standing on a crossroad trying to make up my mind
    I'm trying to remember how it got so late
    Why every night pain comes from a different place
    Maybe something's got to change
    I put my foot to the floor
    To make up for the miles I've been losing
    See, I'm running out of things
    I didn't even know I've been using
    While you've been busy crying about my past mistakes
    I've been busy trying to make a change
    Baby, make a change

      You make it sound like someone can erase the vicious hate in this world, and if they can't they carry some blame. Grow up.

      some artists are beyond help. you can try but in the end they are still gone and you are killing yourself trying to come to grips with you feel like you failed them.
