[Verse 1] Coen dreamed beneath the old oak beam Of banners torn by battle cries A knight in steel, a steady hand With honor burning in his eyes
Beyond the fields, the ravens flew The village bells rang out in fright A vampire lord from ruined stone Sent hungry minions through the night
[Pre-Chorus] His father’s blade above the hearth Held years of weather, sweat, and scars Coen drew it from the dust And swore by earth and blood and stars
[Chorus] Ride, Coen, ride where the black gates stand With your father’s sword and your heart unbent Let the dark lord learn from a mortal hand That a vow once made is a vow well spent Raise your blade, let the cold wind roar For the ones who wait by the village door
[Verse 2] He crossed the hill at break of dawn Past broken carts and fields of ash He found the minions at the wall And met their teeth with sparks that flashed
One fell beneath the chapel bell One fled beneath the cedar trees The last stood trembling in the mud And named the lord beyond the seas
[Pre-Chorus] At dusk he reached the castle road Where iron thorns enclosed the stone The moon hung pale above the tower And every step he walked alone
[Chorus] Ride, Coen, ride where the black gates stand With your father’s sword and your heart unbent Let the dark lord learn from a mortal hand That a vow once made is a vow well spent Raise your blade, let the cold wind roar For the ones who wait by the village door
[Bridge] The lord came down in a coat of night With a crown like frost and a voice like rain “You are one young man against endless dark” Coen answered, “Then remember my name”
Steel met claw by the ruined well Red sparks leapt where the old stones shone The sword sang true in Coen’s grip And the vampire faced the dawn alone
[Final Chorus] Ride, Coen, ride, let the whole land hear The dark has cracked and the night must yield With your father’s sword and a heart sincere You carried the brave from the village field Raise your blade, let the cold wind roar The vampire lord will rule no more
[Outro] When the morning warmed the battered stone Coen walked back through the open gate No crown he sought, no throne, no praise Just a village saved before it was too late
