Day Fifteen - Uncanny (Unheimliche)


Nancy Holloway - Hurt So Bad
pressed in 1967





























I know you
don't know what I'm going through
standing here looking at you

well let me tell you that it
hurts so bad
it makes me feel so bad
you know it hurts so bad to see you again

like needles and pins
people say, "you've been making out okay"
"he's in love don't stand in his way"

but let me tell you that it
hurts so bad
it makes me feel so bad
it's gonna hurt so bad, if you walk away

why don't you stay and let me make it up to you
stay, I'll do anything you want me to
you loved me before
please love me again
i can't let you go back to her
please don't go
please don't go

oh dont go now baby
you know it hurts so bad
don't make it hurt so bad
i'm begging you please

please don't go
please don't go
oh! no, no, no, no, no
you know it hurts so bad
don't make it hurt so bad
i'm begging you please

please don't go
please don't go
no, no
you know it hurts me so bad
don't make it hurt me so bad
i'm begging you please
















You do not need to leave your room. Remain sitting at your table and listen. Do not even listen, simply wait, be quiet still and solitary. The world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked, it has no choice, it will roll in ecstasy at your feet.
- Franz Kafka (cut)
