[Verse 1]

Am I asking all these questions for nothing?

I'm wondering if anyone's there, yeah

And I really need to make a confession

I hate to say that I'm a little bit scared, yeah-eh-ehh

[Chorus]

But I've been on this train too long

People getting off and on

Prayin' that I don't forget where I belong

And every time I ask myself

Am I turnin' into someone else?

I'm prayin' that I don't forget just who I am-am

I really wanna understand

I just wanna understand

[Verse 2]

I'm callin' all my friends after midnight, yeah

To remind 'em that I'll always be there for them

It gets lonely when there's no one to talk to

But it's good to know that somebody cares

[Chorus]

'Cause I've been on this train too long

People gettin' off and on

I'm prayin' that I don't forget where I belong

And every time I ask myself

Am I turnin' into someone else?

I'm prayin' that I don't forget just who I am-am

I really wanna understand

I just wanna understand, yeah

Oh, yeah-eh-ehh

[Bridge]

'Cause we all get lost sometimes (Yeah-eh, I know)

Yeah, we all get lost sometimes

But don't leave your heart behind, no, yeah-eh

'Cause we all get lost sometimes

I really wanna understand

I just gotta understand, yeah-eh-eh

Now I just need to, I need to understand

I really wanna understand, ohh, who I am

[Interlude]

When you wake up, your whole world's flipped

It's just different, and you gotta, you know, you gotta, you gotta go with it

And that's just simply growing up

And not see it in a negative way

You have to see it as it's been given to you

I mean, as much as times can be crazy

You're gonna feel like that's where you're supposed to be

You're not going to feel out of place anymore

You're going to feel like that's where you were meant to be

You don't have to pretend that it's easy all the time

You just let it go and, and grow with it

And you can't hold on to the old you, or the old this, or the old that

Because, you know, you change, and it's not changing in a bad way

It's just changing because that's what happens in life

You grow up, everyone moves on

You're just learning

You stay true to yourself

Changing isn't a bad thing, it never was

But at the end of the day, you know?

You're the same person

And, and where your heart is, that doesn't change

[Chorus]

And every time I ask myself

Am I turning into someone else?

And I just pray to God that I'm still who I am

I really wanna understand

I just gotta understand, yeah-eh-eh-eh-eh

Now I just need to, I need to understand

I really wanna understand, ohh, who I am
