Turning Point (Irma)

(Verse 1) I walked into the silent woods, A place where no one understood. I thought I’d fade without a sound, To leave no burden on the ground. No voices there to call my name, No echoes left, no lingering shame. A step away, a breath, a fall, But something held me after all. (Chorus) In the silent woods, I stood alone, With empty hands and heart like stone. I thought I’d fall, but turned instead, Still haunted by the things unsaid. If nothing waits beyond the trees, Then I’ll keep walking endlessly. In the silent woods, I turned away, And carried on to face the day. (Verse 2) The forest watched but didn’t care, A hollow place where no one’s there. I thought I’d vanish, fade away, But something made me choose to stay. No light, no peace, just empty sound, The shadows keeping me around. I walked the line, I stood so near, But even there, I wouldn’t disappear. (Chorus) In the silent woods, I stood alone, With empty hands and heart like stone. I thought I’d fall, but turned instead, Still haunted by the things unsaid. If nothing waits beyond the trees, Then I’ll keep walking endlessly. In the silent woods, I turned away, And carried on to face the day. (Bridge) I thought I’d go without a fight, No need for peace, no final light. But something kept me standing still, Against my heart, against my will. (Chorus) In the silent woods, I stood alone, With empty hands and heart like stone. I thought I’d fall, but turned instead, Still haunted by the things unsaid. If nothing waits beyond the trees, Then I’ll keep walking endlessly. In the silent woods, I turned away, And carried on to face the day. (Outro) The forest waits, but I moved on, The path ahead, though hope feels gone. I didn’t fall, I didn’t stay, I walk towards whatever comes my way.
