The Umbrella Graveyard

Galactic Curiosities · 3:40 · Pop

This track is part of the catalogue. Its video will be added after publication on the label’s channel.

WITHIN THE ALBUM

The cabinet of stories that spill over.

Galactic Curiosities opens the drawers of Riva Glow’s imaginary shop. Hologram Hearts, The Dream Merchant’s Shop, and The Shadow Puppeteer give faces to objects, trades, and desires that escape everyday life. The word galactic signals boundless curiosity here rather than a scientific journey.

The thirteen tracks offer a gallery of characters, from the collector to secret societies. In the label’s story, Riva offers them a light so that their strangeness can be considered with care. Every listener remains free to make a different story of them.

The Dream Merchant’s Shop offers a doorway; Hologram Hearts opens the complete journey.

Original lyrics

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

Broken umbrellas bloom like flowers
In the garden of forgotten hours

Seven cats with different colored eyes
Watch the puddles tell their lies
Upside-down houses line the street
Where the odd and lonely meet
Paper boats sail through the storm
Finding peace in twisted form

Every shadow has a name
Every tear's a crystal flame
Nothing here is quite the same

In the umbrella graveyard
Where the broken dreams are starred
Polka-dotted phantoms dance
In their last enchanted chance
Spinning tales of second glance

Mismatched buttons tell the time
On the coat of pantomime
Backwards clocks and forwards tears
Count the melancholy years

Do you see me in the rain?
Dancing with my lovely pain
Every drop's a lullaby
For the dreams that learned to fly

In the umbrella graveyard
Where our broken hearts are jarred
But somehow still beat in time
To this beautifully twisted rhyme
Seven cats still watch and wait

"For love that's fashionably late"
