Under the banner of the Cross, with promises of gold
Knights and lords assemble, their hearts and minds controlled
Venetian ships set sail, to the ancient city's gate
But treachery and greed would soon decide its fate
TRAITORS!
TRAITORS!
The walls of Constantinople, proud and standing tall
Guardians of ancient secrets, destined now to fall
A brother turned betrayer, in the name of Christ
A city set ablaze, a paradise sacrificed
TRAITORS!
TRAITORS!
Flames in the night, knowledge turned to dust
Betrayal of Byzantium, consumed by blood and lust
Wisdom lost forever, in the inferno's blaze
Centuries of learning, swallowed by the haze
TRAITORS!
TRAITORS!
The city cries for mercy, as steel meets its stone
A thousand years of culture, left to die alone
Warriors of the Fourth Crusade, blinded by their greed
Destroy the legacy, where ancient scholars read
TRAITORS!
TRAITORS!
Libraries are burning, scrolls and books alight
History and science, vanish in the night
Temples and cathedrals, looted of their grace
In the name of conquest, humanity's disgrace
TRAITORS!
TRAITORS!
Flames in the night, knowledge turned to dust
Betrayal of Byzantium, consumed by blood and lust
Wisdom lost forever, in the inferno's blaze
Centuries of learning, swallowed by the haze
TRAITORS!
TRAITORS!
From the ashes of the fallen, no phoenix will arise
Just echoes of the past, in history's demise
A city once eternal, now a shadowed grave
Betrayed by those who swore, to protect and save
TRAITORS!
The lessons of this tragedy, are written in the flames
Of how the quest for power, can tarnish holy names
Byzantium's betrayal, a stain upon the soul
A dark and haunting chapter, in the crusader's scroll
TRAITORS!
TRAITORS!
Flames in the night, knowledge turned to dust
Betrayal of Byzantium, consumed by blood and lust
Wisdom lost forever, in the inferno's blaze
Centuries of learning, swallowed by the haze
TRAITORS!
In the ruins of the city, where once great minds did dwell
Lies the silent witness, to the tale we tell
Of a conquest not of glory, but of shame and sin
The betrayal of Byzantium, where darkness did begin
TRAITORS!
TRAITORS!
In the ruins of the city, where once great minds did dwell
Lies the silent witness, to the tale we tell
Of a conquest not of glory, but of shame and sin
The betrayal of Byzantium, where darkness did begin
TRAITORS!
TRAITORS!
