It’s An Occupational Hazard Lyrics by A Desperate Endeavor

Stop Whining!

2013

Let's try to start something new here
Time to throw it on the line
And take some chances on ourselves
Straight ahead, and we're all dead
I'll make the best of all this second-guessing
Lying at my feet
I'd like to say when it all ends
I was a man of good intentions
With these blood stains on my hands
And while the world might try to pull me under
I won't die on my knees
Whoa-oh
Twenty down, and more to go
There's no trouble finding sleep
When you don't fear growing old
There's a silvеr-lining here
Or so I'm told
But I'll take thе skies;
Make the clouds mine
And paint these lines gold
Is this all I envisioned?
Making due with what I can
All for means to an end
I don't think I ever listened
When they told me, "You're not good enough
Just get out while you can."
Where's the sense in giving up
When all you've ever wanted
Has been right around the bend?
A one-way ticket to anywhere
And I'll risk it all again
Whoa-oh
Twenty down, and more to go
There's no trouble finding sleep
When you don't fear growing old
There's a silver-lining here
Or so I'm told
But I'll take the skies;
Make the clouds mine
And paint these lines gold
Paint these lines gold
And I can say with a straight face
The mistakes I made were worth the nights
I spent restless and lying awake
With just the chance at a breakthrough
And maybe it's you who pushed me forward
And made me the person they look up to
It scares me to think that someday
I'll be something worth remembering
Let's try to start something new here
Say "so long" to bad years
And all of the ones who gave up on us
Whoa-oh
Twenty down, and more to go
There's no trouble finding sleep
When you don't fear growing old
There's a silver-lining here
Or so I'm told
But I'll take the skies;
Make the clouds mine
Whoa-oh
Twenty down, and more to go
There's no trouble finding sleep
When you don't fear growing old
There's a silver-lining here
Or so I'm told
But I'll take the skies;
Make the clouds mine
And paint these lines gold
