The city of Antioch was the gem of the Levant
She was built with care and thick high walls
The towers rose far above the rich land
Her defenders had grown quite arrogant
Refusing to believe they could ever fall
But ingenuity will always solve the issue
Tower guards couldn't see through shadows
The attacker patiently worked with ladders
And in other areas their efforts continued
They silently moved up the great towers
And the defenders within had no warning
Of the flood of warriors now pouring through
