It is Said

It is said there are the Elder Four
Standing as observers
They've been standing in the dark a thousand years
Then there is the monkey man
Or that's a name I call him
He stands upon a platform
On a pyramid
On a sphere
He plays a magic violin
Pour light like honey in your ears
He has a little friend too
The reason for his title
He cranks his little jack box
A tune that no one hears is idle
And finally a couple
Never two the same
They share for hours
Sleepwalk dancing
The blackest shadows swallow names
And then it happens
Warm with colors
Unconscious for five days
Unconscious for none
It is the greatest celebration
The two who belong here are now known as One
