"It Is Written" lyrics - MIKE CAMPBELL & THE DIRTY KNOBS

People are hurting
People of all ages
Mother Nature's angry and cold war wages
Gotta raise your fist, gotta raise your voices
It's time to make some hard choices
Your fires are burning from shore to shore
Can't stand the pain in here anymore
Mothers and fathers gotta protect your kids
Yeah, keep 'em safe and keep 'em hid

[Chorus:]
I've heard there's a light at the end of the tunnel
I've heard there's a wisdom and uncertainty
I've heard every cloud has a silver lining
Well, I hope that's true for you and me

Like a swarm of locusts, the storm shall pass
And we'll be free, free at last
So stand together, one and all
The grass ain't always greener over the wall

[Chorus:]
I've heard there's a light at the end of the tunnel
I've heard there's a wisdom and uncertainty
I've heard every cloud has a silver lining
Well, I hope that's true for you and me

You were born in California
I was born in F.L.A
I went out there with a rock n' roll band, yeah
Looking for somewhere else to play
You were an angel, an independent girl
You were not afraid of the big wicked world
You took me in and gave me hope
When I was at the end of my rope
And I will always be grateful
For finding you when I did
I will always treasure you
As my dearest and deepest friend

[Chorus:]
I've heard there's a light at the end of the tunnel
I've heard there's a wisdom and uncertainty
I've heard every cloud has a silver lining
Well, I hope that's true for you and me
