Lyrics:
On the road we didn't see a soul for hours
and on the road you didn't say a word for hours
to fit the mood, to fit the mood
It sends a chill through me when you look at the stars and say:
"You all are behaving like your blood is the same as my blood."
But you let the world stop trying
and you let the world stop trying
you let the world give up
and my blood runs against that kind of blood
And the name of this place
you speak it like a question
you speak it like a sentence all it's own
It tells us how the world has merged in places with the dark
It sends a chill through me when you look at the stars and say:
"You all are behaving like your blood is the same as my blood."
But you let the world stop trying
and you let the world stop trying
you let the world give up
and my blood runs against that kind of blood
Nobody tries that hard anymore
Nobody tries that hard anymore
Nobody tries that hard anymore
Nobody tries that hard anymore
Anymore

Too young to ever see him live. How I wish he was still here with us but God had other plans I guess. RIP Jason, you're music touches me unlike any other.

[@jeffreyyyy3052]

God doesn't exsist if he did he would have helped him to not drink himself to dead. I mean this in the nicest way accept the God part fuck him

[@accurtis2763]

So beautifully recorded. anyone who doesn't get chills listening to this is no one I need.

When Im drunk, so drunk that playlist is already set, there is only Jason Molina in it, cause I know where this road always ends.

[@HEL1OX]

can't belive he was one of the few artist to come touring in italy but i never had the chance to see him

[@carolinastringband]

As I understand it, the singer from the band Morphine died on stage mid-song, somewhere in Italy. If you haven't listened to Morphine, check the album Cure for Pain. Trust me on this one 🙂

[@Calleisak]

Time to re-release this on vinyl and digitally!

[@Itsa6stringthang]

yeah an original copy costs like $180 ...

[@Calleisak]

One of Molinas best songs!

[@Calleisak]

And that says alot...

[@Ammoniumbicarbonat]

Is there a studio version anywhere?

[@Calleisak]

@@Ammoniumbicarbonat Not that i know of! I think this song was only released on this record.

[@_space.pony_]

This song is very meaningful to me, I've listened to it for many years and it's always hit me deeply.

[@yanushkowalsky1402]

I wish I could hear him play live. Whose concerts should I see in 2023/2024 to not regret it in the future?

[@repunched106]

Built to spill

[@carolinastringband]

Bon Iver

[@SchlickSteve]

@@repunched106 fuck yeah

[@SchlickSteve]

beach fossils

[@joshuanelson8648]

These Songs: Ohia years were great. We'll never here a song like this again. I hope Jason Molina finally found some peace where ever he is now

[@rideordie71]

JOSHUA NELSON he’s dead

[@sortedtales]

@@rideordie71 - Yeah, no shit. Thanks for coming out.

[@mierypesado6740]

One of his best, and that's saying *a lot*

[@marinellaamerio9034]

So good!!!!!!😘Jason Molina 🖤

[@AndrewTonneman]

So strong. So Molina.

[@Elfegas]

this song has something, which destructs destruction, sadness and pain

[@shanejones9148]

Still here. Wake up people Thank You

[@matthunterrlf]

Holy wow! This is incredible!

[@joseluisdefrancischi8090]

Amazing song...RIP

[@malpka]

such a perfect song..

[@RadioTitogradDPS]

as they say words are relevant

[@jordanfstop]

Sometimes I hear songs I haven't heard or aren't as familiar with from Songs: Ohia, and I deeo-down I think they're newly released, at least to me.

[@ninnakriss]

the best song ever!!!

[@clouduphigh]

[@batvalentine]

[@Dagstyrr]

REALY NICE ! AND WERES HIS RECORD DEAL ?!?! Its a Pity !

[@JonB83]

***** he passed away in 2013...

[@DAMMSE420]

DAMN ! THE GOOD STILL DIE YOUNG !!

[@JonB83]

Yup. Unfortunately.

[@patrickmcglynn924]

A beast so sad we cant see him anymore...would love to hear what he has to say today...have missed him for years...so under appreciated

[@thechatcat5022]

I will never stop trying and it fucking sucks but god, better then the alt

[@billiamworthwurst7161]

This actually reminds me a lot of Tool. Beautiful thoughtful vocals, heavy and loud chorus, and overall kind of cynical tone. Love the lick on the chorus where it goes kind of high pitched. Playing this and seeing this performance must have been really moving especially if you knew the lyrics.

[@sortedtales]

I'm not sure how to interpret these lyrics. What's your take?

[@AlphaDaddy82]

@@sortedtales To me it's: Feeling alone in this world. They think they have the same blood. But it isn't, so he can't find a way to relate. Jason trying his best, giving his all in being a great human being and others not trying as much. Being sensitive while others just don't care is kinda frustrating (earth has merged with the dark).

[@ehshasa]

Kind of an insult to Jason lol

[@billiemackenzie4295]

No shit..

[@user-gt7wo4kp5v]

wow
