<pre><font size='+2'>ONE OF THE ENEMY lyrics ROMANOVSKY AND PHILLIPS</font><br>This song was suggested to me by a high school teacher who said<br />
that being unable to defend homosexuality makes him feel like he<br />

supports oppression by their silence.)<br />
<br />
Every day I go to work<br />
I`m there to teach integrity<br />
But how can I teach anything<br />
With a closet door in front of me<br />
<br />
`Cause when I look out at the faces<br />
One or two see through the lies<br />
And when I look right back at them<br />
I see the pain of my own youth in their eyes<br />
<br />
And it breaks my heart<br />
And it makes me feel ashamed to wear this mask<br />
Each day from 8 to 3<br />
I can`t reach out<br />
To the ones who need a friend<br />
So I must pretend to be<br />
One of the enemy<br />
<br />
Every year a hundred faces<br />
Staring blindly up at me<br />
How I want to tell the truth<br />
Instead of teaching history<br />
<br />
But for job security<br />
I don`t dare say a word<br />
And so my good intentions fade<br />
And my thoughts of love are left unheard<br />
<br />
And it hurts my pride<br />
And I hate to have to hide myself away<br />
Each day from 8 to 3<br />
I can`t reach out<br />
To the ones who need a friend<br />
So I must pretend to be<br />
One of the enemy<br />
To the boys who leave the girls behind<br />
To the girls with more than boyfriends<br />
On their minds<br />
I can`t reach out<br />
To the ones who need a friend<br />
So I must pretend to be<br />
I must pretend<br />
<br />
Maybe someday I`ll find a way<br />
(Some day soon I`ll find a way)<br />
To comfort them (to calm their fears)<br />
And let them know that things will change<br />
If they can make it through these years<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/one_of_the_enemy_lyrics-romanovsky_and_phillips.html" target='_blank'>ONE OF THE ENEMY lyrics ROMANOVSKY AND PHILLIPS</a></pre>

This song was suggested to me by a high school teacher who said
that being unable to defend homosexuality makes him feel like he
is `one of the oppressors` in the eyes of his gay and lesbian
students. the enemy is everyone, gay or straight, who passively
supports oppression by their silence.)

Every day I go to work
I`m there to teach integrity
But how can I teach anything
With a closet door in front of me

`Cause when I look out at the faces
One or two see through the lies
And when I look right back at them
I see the pain of my own youth in their eyes

And it breaks my heart
And it makes me feel ashamed to wear this mask
Each day from 8 to 3
I can`t reach out
To the ones who need a friend
So I must pretend to be
One of the enemy

Every year a hundred faces
Staring blindly up at me
How I want to tell the truth
Instead of teaching history

But for job security
I don`t dare say a word
And so my good intentions fade
And my thoughts of love are left unheard

And it hurts my pride
And I hate to have to hide myself away
Each day from 8 to 3
I can`t reach out
To the ones who need a friend
So I must pretend to be
One of the enemy
To the boys who leave the girls behind
To the girls with more than boyfriends
On their minds
I can`t reach out
To the ones who need a friend
So I must pretend to be
I must pretend

Maybe someday I`ll find a way
(Some day soon I`ll find a way)
To comfort them (to calm their fears)
And let them know that things will change
If they can make it through these years
