Who ARE you?
Posted: October 1, 2022
“I know there’s a place you walked
Where love falls from the trees
My heart is like a broken cup
I only feel right on my knees
I spit out like a sewer hole
Yet still receive your kiss
How can I measure up to anyone now
After such a love as this?
Well, who are you?
(Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
Tell me, who are you?
(Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
I really wanna know
(Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
Tell me, tell me who are you?
(Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)”
(Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
Tell me, who are you?
(Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
I really wanna know
(Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
Tell me, tell me who are you?
(Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)”
I love these lyrics from The Who’s “Who are You?” (wow, that’s a lot of “who”) but for those struggling in an unhealthy relationship, marked with physical, emotional, sexual or financial harm, the question can be difficult to answer.
Who are you? How do you define yourself? What stories do you tell yourself?
