Gravedigger's Tea Party

Twilight Nurse · 3:55 · Pop

WITHIN THE ALBUM

The stories of those who keep watch.

Twilight Nurse looks at Riva Glow’s city through the eyes of those who stay awake at night. Night Shift Angels, The Lighthouse Keeper’s Wife, and The Cartographer of Forgotten Places are landmarks in this attention to quiet presences. The album title names an artistic world, not a profession practiced by a real person.

Gardens, workshops, and vehicles move through the sixteen scenes. The suggested story connects these images through care and attention, without a medical interpretation. The night keeps its strangeness while also making room for tenderness and curiosity.

Night Shift Angels introduces this perspective; The Runaway Ambulance begins the album’s full sequence.

Original lyrics

Text supplied in the project files. The original language is preserved.

Edgar sets the table fine Six feet down where dead folks dine
Bone china for the bone-thin guests Who've checked out of life's requests
Sugar cubes and moldy cake For the friends that earth will take
Every graze a dinner seat Where the living and dead meet

Pour the tea from rusty pots For the guests who speak not
In this party time forgot
At the grave digger's tea party Where the dead are never tardy
Every headstone marks a chair At the table we all share

In this subterranean party
Mrs. Henderson, plot to 43 Still prefers her earl grey tea
Colonel walks like sugar sweet Even though he can't eat it
Am I mad or are they real ? These companions that I feel ?
When the living world's unkind Do the dead eat troubled mind ?

At the grave digger's tea party Where the dead are never tardy
Though their conversation's thin They're the best friends I've ever been
To this underground party

When the moon shines on the stones Edgar packs up cups and bones
Tomorrow night he'll set again The table for his faithful friends

Same time tomorrow night The party's always just right
