about
The Awkwards is a solo thing, despite the stoopid band name. I'm Keith in Aberdeen (Scotland) and here are some lo-fi songs recorded at home, sometimes in collaboration with youtube friends (see below for details).

**produced by, and featuring instrumentation by, The Mourning Kitchen (Michael Thompson), with Nora B. on vocals

- Track Name: Calendar
-
work my way towards a dreamed-of appointment
work, work, work and all i see is disappointment
calendar, i turn a new leaf over
calendar, when will i be in clover
work my way towards a dream i believe in
work, work, work and all i see is half the evening
calendar, i turn a new leaf over
calendar, when will i be in clover
i turn a new leaf over
calendar, this bloody tired evening
will never stop me believing
calendar, calendar, calendar
i'll never, i'll never, i'll never - Track Name: The Queen of Low Self-esteem
-
she'll give you anything you like
the village queen, the village bike
forever tethered to her throne
she just doesn't want to be alone
and anything to be a bride
and fill the emptiness inside
but you are selfish and you're mean
anoint her the queen of low self-esteem
she'll give you anything you like
the village queen, the village bike
forever tethered to her throne
she just doesn't want to be alone - Track Name: In an Empty Room
-
in an empty room, this is where i'd rather be
in an empty room what is there to bother me
blue skies aglow
i will not go
pictures of the past, what do they remind me
in my prime at last, or best years behind me
cool with disdain
i'm home again
in an empty room
in an empty room
pictures of the past, what do they remind me
in my prime at last, or best years behind me
in an empty room, did i say i'd rather
i dream of a room where the old friends gather - Track Name: The Last Bus
-
the last bus is a lonely place
the sudden light, each waxwork face
the littered floor of dreams displaced
the last bus is a lonely place
each stranger sits, like you, alone
each stranger waiting to get home
a thread of love by telephone
each stranger sits, like you, alone
the last bus is a lonely place
the sudden light, each waxwork face
the littered floor of dreams displaced
the last bus is a lonely place - Track Name: In a Year or So
-
sleep alone but i'm not lonely
people leave me be, if only
i'll be there i know, where i long to go
in a year or so
sleepless night oh how you haunt me
sleepless, still these dreams they taunt me
i'll be there i know where i long to go
in a year or so,
in a year or so
man of reason, man of letters
my very soul will be better
i'll be there i know, where i long to go
in a year or so,
in a year or so,
in a year or so - Track Name: The Ghost of Girlfriends Past*
-
she is the one
you will never see again
she is the one
who will always call your name
no, no, no, she was never meant to last
she is just the ghost, the ghost of girlfriends past
she is the love
you looked for but could not find
she's the reason
behind every axe you grind
no, no, no, she was never meant to last
she is just the ghost, the ghost of girlfriends past
no, no, no, she was never meant to last
she is just the ghost, the ghost of girlfriends past
and her time on earth
is short but what can you do?
you will never know
if you haunt her like she haunts you
no, no, no, she was never meant to last
she is just the ghost, the ghost of girlfriends past
no , no, no, she was never meant to last
she is just the ghost, the ghost of girlfriends past
