I'm Not the Enemy Video (MV)

Once I had a house with windows and a door
I worked the land like a lover
Once I walked for pleasure, now I run from war
We hide, and take cover
Everything fell apart
It has broken my heart
There was nothing for me to leave behind
Now you say you don't want me
But Perhaps I'm what you need
You're all so frightened of me
Shouting, go home refugee
Someone filled your ears with lies
And now your eyes can't see
I'm not the enemy
I'm not the enemy
Once I had a life with friends and family
We looked out for each other
Once I had some papers and I had a name
A job, a chance to prosper
Everything fell apart
It has broken my heart
There was nothing for me to leave behind
Now you say you don't want me
But Perhaps I'm what you need
You're all so frightened of me
Shouting, go home refugee
Someone filled your ears with lies
And now your eyes can't see
I'm not the enemy
I'm not the enemy
I bring my body and my brain to work with you
My strength, my dreams
These are my gifts to you
Together we could be much more
If you'd open up the door
Now you say you don't want me
But Perhaps I'm what you need
You're all so frightened of me
Shouting, go home refugee
Someone filled your ears with lies
And now your eyes can't see
I'm not the enemy
I'm not the enemy
I'm not the enemy
